A tragic fire that started the night of 9/17 at 481 Van Brunt has made BWAC unavailable and displaced the festival “Liquid Cartographies: Reshaping the Banks of the Possible” created with The Emergence Network

PortSide will now host the festival reception of the “Disorientation Station” on our historic ship MARY A. WHALEN, Saturday 9-6 and Sunday 9-4.

People can check in here, see the resource library, talk to staff, linger on the deck of the tanker MARY A. WHALEN as per TankerTime now.

Updated schedule with changed locations is here

This is a ticketed event. Get tickets here.
