2,000 Pigeons Will Put on a Light Show in Brooklyn

This mass performance piece — an avian-powered show at the Brooklyn Navy Yard — is the artist’s valentine to the vanishing world of rooftop pigeon fanciers.

[delightfullycatawampus]

Starts May 7th!!!! SO excited. Tickets are already sold out, but maybe join Creative Time, or offer to volunteer, or scope out the scene in Red Hook and see if there is any rooftop with viewing possibilities.  I think Brooklyn Grange has dinner tickets + viewings on some weekends (look into it).

Also, have you seen Duke Rileys tattoos? addicted. 

Also, I’ll be volunteering on Sundays and am obviously super pumped.
