Overview
We have a big empty house on Governors Island, so we're inviting you to help us make it a home. Grand opening of Dark Lab's summer house!
Get ready on Saturday May 16 for the Dark Lab - Governors Island Grand Opening! This in-person bash is a series of conversations and workshops on the theme “The Art of the House Party.” We just moved into our new space - a big empty colonial house in New York City. Just minutes by ferry from Wall Street. RSVP for a spot.
Help us dream ideas for how to decorate and curate the house.
From 11a to 6p. Come when you can, leave when you must.
We feel like the houseparty is a dying artform so we are welcoming you to the grand opening our new summer island house to dream together about the architecture of gathering. Each panelist will share a mixtape of their favorite house party songs.
Bring a housewarming gift! We welcome book donations and house plants. There will be prizes. And we will be sharing our favorite house party songs as a collective playlist.
