'Open' your eyes to this nighttime walk through the East Village
Here's info about a new nighttime walking tour through parts of the neighborhood... via the EVG inbox...
"OPEN" is a series of temporary light art installations occupying a selection of storefronts in the East Village. Visitors are invited to discover the neighborhood anew via a mapped out nightwalk. The walk links both empty and occupied storefronts transformed through a mix of light projections and radiant effusions of color.
Sponsored by the Designers Lighting Forum of New York (DLFNY), the Flint Collective NYC partnered with lighting manufacturers and local business owners to respond to a city transformed by the global pandemic. In the rhythm of closed storefronts "OPEN" offers an optimistic pause of light and color.
"People may be cynical in thinking of these storefronts as failed capitalism, but each one has a history and plays a vital role in creating and sustaining vibrant communities," said Yasmina Palumbo of neighboring business MUD NYC and site partner for OPEN.
The installation is spread out across eight sites in the East Village and is active from Saturday Sept. 12 through Sept. 20, 7:30-11 p.m.
The following sites are on the tour:
• 155 Avenue B
• 111 East 7th Street
• 336 East 11th Street
• 307 East 9th Street
• 436 East 9th Street
• 337 East 9th Street
• 107 Ave B
• Secret Site
And if a map helps...

An art opening on 11th Street with music from Zimbabwe
East Village-based artist Nora Balaban debuted new drawings last evening with a storefront opening on 11th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B. (Her work remains on display for viewing outside 526 E. 11th St.)
EVG contributor Stacie Joy stopped by to check out the socially distant festivities...
...which included music from Zimbabwe. Balaban ran Tribal Soundz, a community-oriented world music store, on Sixth Street for 10 years.
Stacie reports that "it was a positive and happy event."
