Description

Gallery Bar in LES tried first, and admirably, but they just couldn't combine the intellectual yen of a gallery space with an ebullient dance scene. Glasslands Gallery, across the East River, fares much better, thanks to A-list even curators (MGMT and TV on the Radio have celebrated a holiday or two here) and quality postmodern collections. Unless you already regularly breakdance in the Met, this is the highbrow/lowbrow boogying you've been craving.

  • 2012 | Best Block for Concert Hopping

    Full disclosure: When this year's awards were being assigned, this category was intended to reward the best live-music venue in the city, a place that kept the cover low and the volume high and that booked all types of shows for all types of crowds. The problem? South Williamsburg has three of those places, all on the same block of Kent Avenue. Start at Glasslands, a beautifully realized 300-person space where bands and DJs perform in front of an unmistakable handmade thunder cloud of paper,... More »

  • 2008 | Best Arts Venue Conjuring Avenue A in the '80s

    The reunion of a 1970s San Francisco-based drag troupe, a 1930s Berlin-style cabaret, music acts ranging from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs to Matisyahu, a soul-dance competition, and a lecture by conceptual-art philosopher Henry Flynt are just the beginning at GlassLands Gallery. The tchotchke-filled, mural-lined industrial space on a no-man's-land block in Williamsburg is something right out of the East Village's heyday, with a paint-your-own section of wall; artwork including found objects by J...
