On the Bill

We have always said our illustrated Brooklyn bar review column Bar Scrawl belongs in a gallery, and now it does! Well, pretty close — Bartoonist Bill Roundy is holding a month-long exhibition of his scrawls at Park Slope’s Supercollider bar. The launch party is tonight, so go and buy him a drink.

7–9 pm at Supercollider [609 Fourth Ave. between 17th and 18th streets in Park Slope, (347) 725–3803, www.super‌colli‌derlo‌unge.com]. Free.

Having a ball

It may be all but over for the Mets this season, but the team is still hitting it out of the park for fans with the Mets Jam Music Festival. Meet John Franco, Eduardo Alfonso, Doc Gooden, and Ed Kranepool; put your pitching arm to good use at the dunk tank; win tickets and merchandise; and rock out to the sweet sounds of local folk duo Oh Honey.

Noon–4 pm at Brooklyn Bridge Park, Pier 2 [Furman and Montague streets in Brooklyn Heights, www.brook‌lynbr‌idgep‌ark.org]. Free.

Taster’s choice

Overwhelmed by the bloated dining scene in Brooklyn’s hippest ’hoods? At Taste Williamsburg Greenpoint, more than 40 of the area’s eateries and drinkeries will serve up samples of their fare, so you can pick and choose without spending a week’s paycheck. Chow down on edibles from the likes of Reynard, the Elm, and Maison Premiere, while getting down to a live music lineup curated by Rough Trade.

Have what she’s having

Pesto is the quiche of the ’80s, and this is apparently the “Rocky Horror Picture Show” of the 2010s. Events collective Forced Meme Productions will screen the classic rom-com “When Harry Met Sally,” with audience interaction and Pop Up Video-inspired trivia. There will also be a raffle, and food from Mile End Delicatessen.
