Mayfair at Ding Dong!

Saturday, May 7, 2011, 1:00 PM – 11:00 PM

Ding Dong Lounge
929 Columbus Avenue
New York

Join Fractious Press and friends as we transform Ding Dong Lounge into NYC's best and only ephemeral bookshop/crafts fair/art gallery/speakeasy/underground music venue/inappropriately timed christmas party for an entire afternoon. This only happens once a year, and is absolutely not to be missed. It's an early event! Experience May Fair @ Ding Dong, then go party downtown (or better yet, stay at Ding Dong which is open til 4 am and has beer taps made from the headstocks of dismembered electric guitars). Admission is totally FREE (but we appreciate any donations made at the door!)

with:
-your very own zine, small press, crafts & fine art ephemeral flea market (enough of a reason to attend in and of itself!)
-a rare opportunity to decorate a christmas tree with both friends and total strangers in the middle of spring
-the aforementioned beer taps, made from the headstocks of dismembered electric guitars.
- performances by:
