You can visit the Howl! website for schedules and stuff. There are more details at the East Village Howler blog.

Meanwhile, Allen Ginsberg was born on this date in 1926.

And here are two photos Ginsberg took of Jack Kerouac in 1953... you may have seen other shots from this series on Seventh Street...


...and in front of Vazacs on Avenue B and Seventh Street...


... and lastly, Ginsberg walking on, according to the Getty Images caption, 10th Street at Avenue B in June 1966.
