This weekend, Dumbo, Brooklyn is going to be high on art. In its 14th installment, the Dumbo Arts Festival has expanded its line-up of programming to include family programs, new media arts, theatre, literary arts, music workshops, and even kite-flying! (free kites offered by the Kite Flying Society at Galapagos). The artists involved range from local talents to special visiting artists. Happening at the same time is Capture Brooklyn: A Juried Photo Exhibition by the New York Photo Festival. Hosted by Powerhouse Arena, it’ll be a massive gathering of up-and-coming photographers with tons of indie photo books out for sale.
I recommend downloading the Festival’s map and program prior to trekking out to the waterfront.
