A pop-up gallery, Life, The Universe & Everything, will be holding forth this summer at 42 Avenue B between Third Street and Fourth Street.

The first show, "Queen of Mars" by Rebecca Leveille Guayabera, opens tonight from 5-9.

This month, the gallery is open Tuesdays-Saturdays from 2-6 p.m. or by appointment. For more info on upcoming events here.

A new home for Three Kings Tattoo

The East Village location of Three Kings Tattoo has moved into a larger, higher-profile new home at 343 E. 10th St. just west of Avenue B — between Ninth Street Espresso and Maiden Lane.

The shop had been around the corner on Avenue B between 11th Street and 12th Street (and adjacent to a building about to be demolished).

No. 343 has been vacant for years. (Ninth Street Espresso explored expanding here back in 2012, though those plans never materialized.) This space is part of the former Life Cafe, which closed in September 2011.
