The staff picks at For The Record range across shoegaze, indie, electronic music, jazz, hip-hop, funk and country. You can browse with a coffee, moving between new releases and classic albums, with recommendations to help narrow the search. Looking through the covers is part of the pleasure here, even before you settle on a record.
WORD’s booksellers organize recommendations around interests as particular as detective stories, history, queer reading and music. You can follow those reading lists or browse the covers and ask for a staff recommendation. For anyone coming south from the record shop, the music selections offer a natural connection between the two stops.
Brooklyn Craft Company teaches the skills behind the materials it sells, from sewing and embroidery to knitting, crochet, weaving and dyeing. You can begin with a workshop focused on your first stitches, or take a project-specific class that unfolds across several weeks.
Film Noir Cinema gives its programmers, and sometimes a member of its film club, the pleasure of keeping the title to themselves. You can go into a screening knowing the film, or choose a program built around a surprise. Film Noir Monday concentrates on lesser-known noir, including international films, without announcing the title beforehand. The mystery is in the selection as well as whatever unfolds on screen.
Emerging and established musicians play Warsaw Concerts inside the historic Polish National Home, with the bistro’s signature pierogi adding a distinctly local element to your music night. You can pair a show with the Polish dumplings and a beer or cocktail from the bar. The programming now crosses genres; punk and indie concerts have been part of the building’s life since 2001, helping fund community programs.
