A line-up of several acts from each borough will be selected to perform at The Greene Space, culminating in a final round with winners from each borough. The ultimate winner will receive a featured concert in The Greene Space and an opening act slot at a SummerStage concert in 2012!

Sign up! You can sign up and submit a sample of the work you would like to perform here. All entries must be received no later than December 31st, 2011 at 11:59 PM.

Let It End Like This

Daily from Wed., March 9 until Sat., May 14    We know we're not the only ones who have fantasized about faking our own death and going undercover to the funeral just to see what people would say about us. Todd Zuniga certainly thinks about it. The co-creator of Literary Death Match (we're seeing a pattern here) asked 40 writers, filmmakers, musicians, and others to write their own obituaries for the exhibition

Matted Inc. - (which is both a gallery and a custom-framing/gift shop)

There’s plenty of things to spend dough on. Owner Donna Drimer fills the space with contemporary art from local painters and photographers (for six-week exhibits), allowing her to show off the store’s vast selection of framing supplies. In addition to earthy, handmade goods (pottery, glassware, wooden boxes, soaps and our favorite, a wallet fashioned from recycled candy wrappers, $25–$38), you can snag quirkier items, such as Jishaku ($22), a board game involving magnetic stones
