LOW-COST COSTUME CLOTHING SWAP AND DESIGN PARTY

at Boxcar Lounge (168 Avenue B between East 10th and East 11th Street)

3pm-7pm

Drink specials, good music, and some creative people on-hand ready to help with suggestions.

For admission, just bring a bag of any lightly-used and freshly-laundered clothes you don’t want anymore - or, if you don’t have that, $5 (all the money will go to Goodwill and its rehabilitation programs, recycling initiatives, and community outreach). Then you’re free to fill up a new bag with anything you like – and we’ll be on-hand to give you tips as to what costume you can make from all you have, now, at your fingertips.

Nina and I cannot say enough about the food here.  DELICIOUS!  Typically we do not speak at all, we can only make noises to express our joy.  We love the spicy tempeh salad, the Yogi’s choice with rosemary seitan, quinoa and kale and the vegan muffins, brownies, pies, cookies and more! The food is 100% vegan. It is amazing that food this tasty is not only healthy, but earth-conscious.  So if you are ever in Union Square, do yourself a favor, and stop at the JivamukTea Cafe (841 Broadway, 2nd floor). And while you’re at it, take a class!

This is the spicy tempeh salad with peanut dressing and a side of kale.
