We are kicking off the monthly Avenue B Block Party Series with BeatleMinia! All afternoon there will be a bunch of vendors along Avenue B between 10th and 11th with a Beatles tribute band called Walrus from 2 till 5. It's also Dance Parade, which ends right in the park, so it should be complete madness!
WALRUS is a Bushwick-based Beatles and Grateful Dead Jam Band. They put their own personal spin on all the hits. They'll be playing in the street, where you'll be able to dance like it's 1969!
Vendors include:
East Village Vintage Collective - Maegan and Alex curate the coolest clothes of every decade, along with fab accessories and interesting ephemera.
3rd & B'zaar - Laura, Maegan, Alex, Delphine and Marie conspire on the East Village's most eclectic shop, with colorful new and vintage clothing, art and accessories, jewelry, bags, hats and more.
Miss FrizzDazzle - You know her as Marie and she is always a riot of color! Catch her psychedelic collection of rompers and dresses, skirts and tops. She especially enjoys styling you in eye-popping combinations.
Nora Balaban will be there with her artistically stamped shirts. Look closely to see X-rated stuff alongside manhole covers, Bowie faces and more.
NewLineNY - Laura's one of a kind tops, dresses and pants are like wearing a little piece of the East Village. She's got a bunch of Spring colors in addition to her basic black.
Little Hippie - Taylor is licensed to vend Grateful Dead merch, so her tie-dyed fashions will be just the thing to conjure the Beatles era. Grab a trippy tee or shirt dress.
Cara Coniglio brings baseball caps and other hats decorated with adorable stuffies. Get yourself some sun shade festooned with a walrus or other animal.
Happy Everything - Jen is back with her decorative floral headpieces, activist sunglasses and more.
Elizabeth and Jennifer are sharing a space to sell their festival clothing and headpieces.
Vanessa is joining us with her vintage finds, handmade jewelry and more.
Delphine will also be selling her original art and colorful prints, as well as her one of a kind jewelry creations.
We will be adding other fun stuff all the way up until the afternoon. Plus stick around at night for Abby's birthday celebrations!
