If there's one thing BK loves, it’s a creepy market full of oddities and the macabre. This weekend, the First Annual Oddities Flea Market goes down at Brooklyn Bazaar. Spooky shopping is sure to work up an appetite, so afterwards, head to the NYC Food Truck Fest where you can sample supreme city grub from vendors like Luke’s Lobster, Carl's Steaks, Sweet Chilli NYC, and many more. International Women’s Day (and the accompanying Women's General Strike) is Wednesday, March 8th. To celebrate, head to a special women’s edition of BYO Art at Living Gallery, or the Music Video Time Machine fundraiser for PPNY. Coming up, actor and activist Laverne Cox joins film director Silas Howard and model Casey Legler, among others, to discuss transgender visibility in the media as a part of Mx’d Messages, curated by Mx Justin Vivian Bond. Tomorrow night, Housing Works teams up with Huffington Post Arts & Culture and Repro Rights Zine to host a politically charged Drink N’ Draw event. Later this week, BRIC House Sessions returns with pioneering eight-piece band Red Baraat. And on April 1st, a major lineup will pay tribute to Bob Hurwitz of Nonesuch Records at BAM: John Adams, Laurie Anderson, Timo Andres, and more are set to take the stage.
