...Observatory celebrates the eccentric and nurtures the curious; its oddities delight the eye as well as the mind.Thanks to Melissa Stern for loving Observatory--the arts/event space I run with 6 other people in the Gowanus neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York--enough to write a charming piece about it for this week's Time Out New York.
The piece is entitled "I’m Officially Obsessed with Observatory;" You can read the article--from which I drew the excerpt and image above--in its entirety by clicking here. You can find out more about Observatory by clicking here; you can join the Observatory mailing list by clicking here, and can join us on Facebook by clicking here.
The above image is sourced my Secret Museum exhibition, which closes with a party this Sunday, June 6. More on that soon; in the meantime, you can visit the Secret Museum website by clicking here.

observatory sounds fantastic - i love that concept of 'rational amusement' and all the incredible ideas and societies that sprang from it (my current obsession is victorian-era archaeology) - the lectures sound great, too...i don't suppose you do podcasts...?
