Hi,

Sadly, I had to cancel last week since I had a sore throat and didn't want to risk a. getting anyone else sick and b. getting any sicker, because I had a big job yesterday hosting a costume contest for dogs aptly named the 28th Annual Great PUPkin Dog Costume Contest.

The winners, The Paw-stige, did a legit magic trick onstage and it was obvious to anyone with ears the second they finished that they clinched the top prize. Next level stuff.

But you're not here for my other hosting pursuits! You're here to sign up for some parallel play at my house in Fort Greene sans screens!

Sign up for this Wednesday, October 28th here.

I would also like to share a couple of other low/no-tech events happening around NYC, if you're so inclined...

Monday, Oct. 26: Falling Leaves Moon @ 7 p.m., Fort Greene Park

In October, we celebrate the Falling Leaves Full Moon, as the foliage changes all around us. Reflect in community on transitions and release through a full moon ritual. Bring a leaf or leaf-related craft to add to our communal altar.

We'll meet to the East of the monument of Fort Greene Park. Ritual begins at 7:30pm and goes until 9:00pm. No RSVP necessary.

Thursday, Oct. 29: HOW TO START A NEWSLETTER @ 10 a.m., online

ARE YOU IN ANOTHER CITY WONDERING HOW CAN WE HAVE AN EVENTS BULLETIN THAT HELPS PEOPLE FORM RELATIONSHIPS OUTSIDE OF THE PLATFORMS?
