To Do: Brooklyn Shuffle, Brewtopia, or Funny Arabs
Friday:
• The Brazilian Girls and Beans headline Brooklyn Shuffle tonight at Southpaw, a two-night showcase for artists who capture the open-mindedness and funky diversity that Brooklyn has grown to embrace. Oh, the euphemisms people come up with for hipster trash. [flavorpill]
• Jesus is Magic, the new film from potty-mouthed ing nue Sarah Silverman, opens today. Bemused Jewish boys everywhere scratch their heads at how unfunny fatman Jimmy Kimmel beat them to the punch. [AOL]
Saturday:
• Enjoy unlimited sampling of over 300 of the finest craft beers in the world at Chelsea Piers Brewtopia: World Beer Festival. Make sure you don t overdo it on the college nostalgia, Van Wilder: Security will be on hand to make certain that you drink responsibly. [Brewtopia]
• Tonight s Art Brut show at Tribeca Grand Hotel is different from the previous Art Brut shows at various other New York City locales in one important way: it s free if you RSVP. [flavorpill]
Sunday:
• The 3rd Annual New York Arab-American Comedy Festival kicks off tonight, conveniently packing hordes of ethnic-looking people into small venues around the city. And the Department of Homeland Security s job just got a hell of a lot easier. [Arab Comedy]
