Well, last year was our hosts' first Holiday party together as a threesome, and it will be a tough one to follow! Wonderful people, lots of them, great burlesque and DJ. We've made it through another year of ideas and collaborations coming to life, expanding, and taking over the world, and we want to drink to this! Come celebrate with us...

The Night's Festivities:
Collaborative Gingerbread Construction! Bring material to contribute to the Gowanus Gingerbread House. Together we'll build (and maybe destroy.. yum..) an inspired object from edible confections. Your hosts will provide basic gingerbread construction materials...
Brooklyn Gin geniuses Emil Jattne and Joe Santos are designing a unique gin and ginger punch for the evening
DJ Treetop is an interstellar traveler, making a pit-stop on Earth. He will spin early 90s hip hop + some holiday themed disco and funk.
