Kiddie Pool in Albany is celebrating their first anniversary with a masquerade party on Friday night. Come by! It will be fun and informative! Historian Peter Gabak will give a lecture at 7:30pm and Nina Isabel will perform around 9pm. @nadalex is making a playlist for the dance party after Nina's performance.
Transit of Venus Anniversary Masquerade đŤ Friday, December 6 - 7-12pm
At Kiddie Pool on Grand Street in Albany.
It's really a masquerade. Come with a mask, or pay $7 for a Venus-theme mask. You can probably get in wearing just your N95 face mask.
WHY ARE WE CELEBRATING
It's our anniversary too! St. Rocco's organized two readings at Kiddie Pool in their first season, including the very first Kiddie Pool salon - "My Life in Art" with Michael Oatman and Rebecca Schiff. We followed up with "Generative Texts" with Kite, Christopher Funkhauser, and Brian McCorkle in November 2023. See all of Kiddie Pool's past events here. Listen to highlights from Generative Texts here.
We won't be organizing future events there, but @nadalex is currently plotting Kiddie Pool's music and literary programs for 2025 with Karley.
Also, Kite is performing at EMPAC in Troy on December 6th at 7pm. Go see Kite and then come to Kiddie Pool for after-party.
