Sunday, May 13: Plenty of spots are participating in DUMBO’s “Brunch Under the Bridges” Mother’s Day event, but Superfine and Bubby’s have the best deals for Mom. Superfine’s offering Mom any drink she wants on the house while Bubby’s has a complimentary bouquet.

Friday, May 18: STREB Slamshow takes conventional dance and turns it upside down. STREB’s team of dancers sail through the air and bounce around the room performing their gravity-defying routines. Think of it as Cirque de Soleil for the Williamsburg set.
