We start the collection this week with this new one marking the beginning of LGBTQ+ Pride month by David Puck, honoring drag persona Sasha Colby, as curated by The Dusty Rebel (WIP shot). Here’s our weekly interview with the street, this week featuring: Skewville, Matt Siren, David Puck, Martin Whatson, Loose, Anso, Rham Bow, Narol, Forever Up, Fuckz, 156 CRU, Ebony, Aims Pukers, Feye, and Sper. Uh, it’s not a dog, and it will probably be weaponized against you in the future. Pilat’s works have become a favorite of Silicon Valley’s tech arrivistes.” “The robots march across canvasses with paint-covered paws. Similarly, we shudder to see campaigns to humanize the robot “dogs”, like this puff piece in the New York Post featuring an office visit to normalize them – in fact using one to create a painting. We shudder to read verbiage that attempts to dehumanize these humans, who are the living example of those seeking the “American Dream”. The open secret is that Western societies have been benefitting from the contributions of immigrants for decades. If the humane view of the story isn’t enough for you, then perhaps you will be comforted to learn that new arrivals accounted for a major portion of US economic growth in the last 12 months. The mayor and governor are taking heat for not doing enough or doing too much or for asking communities to find space for all the new folks arriving by bus from the southern border – with the latest announcement of a 500-cot shelter in a JFK warehouse this week. The official number of arrivals is estimated at 72,000 people. “There are now about 45,800 migrants – or about half the city’s shelter population – spread between hotels, respite centers, transitional shelters, humanitarian relief centers and upstate hotel rooms,” says Deputy Mayor Anne Williams-Isom. If you want your art viewing experience to be accompanied by live Hip Hop performances and plenty of places to grab a drink amongst the live aerosol painting on the street, just go to the Bushwick Collective’s annual block party, which is happening right now.Īs we enter Immigrant Heritage Month, the city is absorbing our newest immigrants, or trying to.
If you want to catch street art, step outside in many neighborhoods across the five boroughs.

New York is full of summer fun opportunities getting outside the city, even for a day is revelatory.
Remember last summer when you realized it was already August, and you didn’t go to the beach or for a hike yet? I vow not to let that happen this summer.
