In a wonderfully
weird melding of traditions, DUMBO will celebrate Oktoberfest
(with Guinness beer) and those bivalve mollusks (oysters) at
the Water Street Bar’s Guinness Oyster Fest on Oct. 5.
The event kicks off at noon and is expected to last for 14 hours,
supplying the neighborhood with food, drink, many bands and even
non-alcoholic activities (such as face painting) for the kids.
Events take place at the six-month-old Water Street Bar (66 Water
St. between Dock and Main streets), and the nearby St. Ann’s
Warehouse (38 Water St., down the block from the bar) and the
Tobacco Warehouse and Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park (across
Water Street from St. Ann’s Warehouse). Rain or shine. For more
information, call (718) 625-9352.
