Pencil This In

120408wilbur.jpgEVENT: Summon your inner Charlotte tonight and save poor Wilbur here from a wretched fate by attending this "Winter Wonderland" fundraiser for The Farm Sanctuary, which rescues animals from the misery of industrial agriculture and gives them new lives on an upstate farm near Watkins Glen. Tonight's bash features fancy cocktails and gourmet hors d'oeuvres from local vegan restaurants, pastry chefs and caterers. $100 washes Wilbur's blood from your hands and gets you in to rub shoulders with promised attendees like Laurie Anderson, Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and—wait for itLicense to Drive star Corey Feldman. – John Del Signore

6 p.m. to 10 p.m. // The Art Directors Club [106 W 29th St] // Call (607) 583-2225, ext. 221 for tickets.

FOOD: Are you casserole crazy? Who isn't! Tonight the Brooklyn Kitchen invites you to join Emily Farris in their third and final Casserole Tasting and Book Signing. Blue Angel Wines will bring some samples to pair with comfort food. They add: "Please bring any non-perishable foods you can spare to the store for the food drive, and we will be matching all cash donations made in our donation jar."

6:30 p.m. // The Brooklyn Kitchen [616 Lorimer Street, Brooklyn] // Free

ART: Chelsea Art Galleries takes a look at Kate Manheim’s first solo NYC show, saying: "Famous for her work with Richard Foreman’s Ontological-Hysteric Theatre in the 1980’s, Kate Manheim’s artwork explores many of the theoretical concepts, dualities and the blurry lines in between that she first embodied in her on-stage characters." The show kicks off tonight (running through January 24th) with an opening reception, and was curated by John Zorn.

6 to 8 p.m. // CUE Art Foundation [511 W 25th St] // Free

MUSIC: The Teenagers (they've got that tribute to Scar-Jo called "Starlett Johansson"), Heloise & The Savoir Faire and Lissy Trullie take the stage at Music Hall tonight. A worthy lineup that should keep you out of trouble for the night.

8 p.m. // Music Hall of Williamsburg [66 North Sixth St, Brooklyn] // $15
