THE HAPPS IN BROOKLYN

Bushwick Open Studios 2011

Happy BOS ’11: June 3-5, 2011 — it’s their 5th birthday!

BOS brings the neighborhood’s thousands of artists and performers out into the streets and in view of each other, other community residents, and the general public – You gotta check it out!

I am most proud of my dearest friend and roommate Nai Vasha who will be showcasing her world that is "the sweet spot" this weekend, as part of BOS .

Support local artist, sing, dance and roam the streets of Bushwick, or as we like to call it "Williamswick"". Good luck Nai Vasha and the rest of the BOS artists!
