Gin and Gingerbread: A Gowanus Holiday Bash

Restrain yourself from noshing on the building materials at this constructive party. Instead, sample a gin punch Emil Jattne and Joe Santos of Brooklyn Gin will make for the occasion. Singer-songwriter Kent Odessa, DJ Treetop, and comedians Kurt Braunohler, Brooke Van Poppelen and Nick Turner will entertain, as the hosts—lit mag Overflow, Brooklyn Creative League and Brooklyn Craft Central—will help inspire the pastry structure. Bring along edible decorations (we suggest Red Hots) or a nonperishable food item to donate to Park Slope soup kitchen CHIPS, and you’ll receive $1 off admission.
