WHAT IS LET’S GET WEIRD?
COMMUNITY TALENT SHOW
An ode to the grade-school talent shows that we never cease to forget, no matter how cringe that rendition of Britney Spears’ “Slave 4 U” was with your school’s dance team.
Come perform and/or discover the weird talents of our eclectic Brooklyn community, have a good laugh, try local food and drinks, and get to know the people of Kworq!
All proceeds will be donated to Gowanus Mutual Aid.
$500 GRAND PRIZE
That’s right! One lucky, talented weirdo will be crowned the winner of “Let’s Get Weird” and take home $500 BUCKAROOS!
Our judges will decide who knocked their performance out of the park with originality, execution, and overall wow factor.
