Union Square Loft – Event Venue, 873 Broadway suite 408, 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM, $55 – $65
Jessica, that’s kinda pricey! Well… not if you’re the winner of this big ol’ wine tasting contest! Do you have what it takes to tell the difference between four different wines, delivered to you as you snack on delicious Tuscan delicacies? If you do, you just might win “a box of food typical from the Piedmont region of Italy!” It’s a contest! It’s a tasting! It’s a class taught by sommeliers!
Sat 16: Endless Summer! Vegan Shop-Up!
Pine Box Rock Shop, 12 Grattan St, Brooklyn, 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM, Free
My air conditioner is still in my window, so it’s technically still summer! In that way I agree with the sentiment of this awesome vegan event, where you can check out not only vegan foods, but also products and services. Vegan nail polish?! Vegan makeup?! Heck yes!

Weds 20: Beetlejuice – Free Screening
Brooklyn Bazaar 150 Greenpoint Ave, Brooklyn
Beetlejuice is one of the best creepy/spooky/scary movies ever made, directed by Tim Burton while he was still blissfully free of the witch’s curse that forced him to cast Johnny Depp in all of his movies. Grab some food, have a drink, and say “Beetlejuice” three times!
