Ditmas Park Agenda: Robert Plant at Celebrate Brooklyn!, Bombay Rickey at Bar Chord

Events in Ditmas Park and beyond to cap off your week.

Now that the weather has cooled down this weekend, you have no reason to stay at home. 

So head out into the lovely cool air and hit one of the not-to-be-missed events. 

Friday

- Have a night of old-timey music at Celebrate Brooklyn! with Trampled by Turtles,  The Devil Makes Three and Brown Birda.

- At The Way Station in Prospect Heights, grove with The Loneliers + The Zimmymen and The Wimmymen + Nick Demeris. 

- Or, for something different, head to the Haunted Murder Mystery Beach Party in Crown Heights for an interactive evening where the audience works together to solve a murder mystery while experiencing art and performances.


Saturday

- Support one of our own tonight at Bar Chord, where Ditmas Park-based Bombay Rickey performs their unique mix of "surf, cumbia, spaghetti-Western, and Bollywood, balanced out with a little coloratura soprano," as they like to put it. Show starts at 9. 

- There are still tickets left to the Robert Plant presents The Sensational Space Shifters concert at Celebrate Brooklyn! Because it's a benefit concert tickets start at $50. 

- Got some little train aficionados at home? Bring them to the New York Transit Museum for Map NYC - ABC 123, where kids will pick a line and create a map based on it. For ages 3 and up. 

- Free Songwriting Circle Bring your tween, between the ages of 7 and 12, to Prospect Park they will work with professional musicians to collectively write one original song and learn to perform it.

Sunday

- To begin your DIY transformation, learn a new skill at the Arts in Dialogue - Bookmaking Workshop right in Ditmas Park. Or, if you're heart belongs to the kitchen, head to Crown Heights for a Mozzarella Making Class. 

- For all you self-proclaimed nerds, tonight is your night at The Way Station with the Sunday Screening: Jeeves & Wooster + Nerd Karaoke.

- If you're in the mood for a movie, Watch Woody Allen's Latest Film, Blue Jasmine, at BAM. The quintessential New York filmmaker has taken his star (Cate Blanchett) from the Big Apple to San Francisco to put her life back together. Martinis, Xanax and drama ensue.
