**\*GET TICKETS AT:** [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/murder-mystery-mixer-tickets-55462015381](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/murder-mystery-mixer-tickets-55462015381) **(**\*Limited # save $5 by using discount code "5" at checkout. *Our events are co-organized by multiple groups so don't pay attention to the RSVPs. These events are consistently well attended.)* **This will be our ultimate Murder Mystery Party! Join us for a night of fun, deception, mystery, laughs and socializing. No experience is necessary and this is the perfect party whether you come alone or with a group of friends; by the end of the night you will have interacted with everyone in the room! This is 100% fun. Can you catch the killer? Cocktails and chaos await!** Our interactive murder mystery nights are a fun and different way to socialize on a Saturday evening! For each of these adventures, everyone at the party plays a role and everyone is a suspect! When you arrive our staff will be on hand to welcome you and give you a character to play in the story. It is designed to be fun and not super hard. During the night our host will narrate the chain of events that lead to the murder then it is up to you to solve the case! **What to expect?** You will be given a character that may be the person who everyone is looking for or you may be the person who solves the mystery. (You will not know right away). Our hosts will set the mood and explain what you need to do which is pretty much relax and enjoy the party with all of the other guests who are playing characters too! **What's the story?** **THE STORY** Katie and Ronald have been dating on and off since high school. Their relationship has survived breakups, makeups, money problems, cheating accusations, lies, jealousy, and enough drama to fill ten years of reality television. But somehow, they always found their way back to each other. After a decade together, Ronald finally popped the question—and now their wedding is only **one week away!** Katie and Ronald are convinced that the problems of their past are behind them. They’re older. They’re wiser. They’ve matured. They’ve forgiven each other. At least… that’s what they keep telling everyone. To celebrate their final days of single life, Katie and Ronald have decided to skip the traditional separate bachelor and bachelorette parties and throw **one enormous combined celebration** instead. They’ve chartered a party bus and invited an unforgettable collection of friends, family members, former flames, old enemies, questionable acquaintances, and a few characters from their past who probably should have stayed there. The plan is simple: pile onto the party bus, hit several locations, drink too much, party too hard, and celebrate the happy couple before they walk down the aisle. **What could possibly go wrong?** Apparently… everything. As the party rolls from one stop to the next, the drinks start flowing—and so do the secrets. Old grudges resurface. Past relationships are exposed. Feelings get hurt. Friendships are tested. Unexpected bonds are formed. Hookups happen. Accusations start flying. And some people begin to wonder whether Katie and Ronald should be getting married at all. Then the celebration takes a deadly turn. **Before the night is over, one member of the party will be DEAD.** Suddenly, everyone is a suspect. Was it the jealous ex-boyfriend who never got over the bride? The nagging future mother-in-law who thinks this wedding is a terrible mistake? A jilted former lover looking for revenge? The minister who knows more about the couple than anyone realizes? The bride’s bizarre brother, who’s been acting suspiciously all night? Or could the killer be someone even closer to the wedding…**Katie or Ronald themselves?** Everyone aboard the party bus has a story. Everyone has a secret. And someone has a motive for murder. You’re invited to join Katie and Ronald for one final night of partying before they say **“I do.”** But choose your friends carefully. Because tonight… **You could be the victim. You could be the murderer. Or you could be the one who solves the case.** Welcome aboard. FAQs: **Can I come alone?** Yes 90% of those attending will likely register on their own but you are invited to bring as many guests as you would like just register for that amount. **Age-specific?** All are welcome 21 and over. **How much?** $20-$30 depending upon how early you purchase. NOT sold at door. Game limited to 40 people and this sells out quickly.

trashscapes: a noticing (and photo) walk

trashscapes: a noticing (and photo) walk

Sat, Sep 19, 3:00 PM
From trashscapes: noticing walks

**LOOK DOWN MORE!** ​ ​A casual walk through the East Village for anyone who wants to slow down, look more carefully at what's around them, and capture what they find. On this walk, we'll move slowly through the neighborhood looking for things worth pausing at and then figuring out how to capture them. I suggest a phone or camera, but feel free to bring a sketchbook or whatever you prefer. Any amount (including 0) of art experience is welcome. :) **this event is pay-what-you-want. the suggested price is $10** **want to pay $5? use promo code "five".** **want to pay $1? use promo code "one"** ​--- ​This walk is inspired by trashscapes—an ongoing photography project that started with a simple habit: noticing the accidental compositions of debris and found matter on NYC streets. Over a decade of daily walks, the habit became an archive of what gets left behind. I'm drawn to the way found matter interplays with the city's infrastructure—using it as framing, finding balance in color and form, and making the incidental feel composed.
