COMEDY: Check out The 7:00 Workout tonight at UCB, where God's Pottery test out some new material on you. The show is listed as being at 6:30pm, which is just confusing - so, get there early?

So catch 'em while you can! 6:30pm // UCB Theater [307 W 26th St]......

PARTY: Disorient & Kostume Kult invite you to The Black & Light Ball; a Black-Lit Burner Formal. It's like a rave, in your dorm room...but in a gallery, with a lot more blacklighting than you could afford in college. With lighting art on display and blacklight flooding the space - we think it's okay if, just this once, you wear your sunglasses at night. Much more art, craziness and music (er, of the "techno" and......

In a weird move, The Storm King Center upstate has taken on Heather Champ's Mirror Project for copyright violation. Heather's site allows people to upload self portraits taken in mirrors and other shiney surfaces, and of the 30,000 or so that people have uploaded, it looks like four or five were taken at Storm King. Here's the takedown notice:"Please remove all images taken at the Storm King Art Center. These sculptures are copyrighted and......
