Cargo Cult Street Party
Being: The culmination of years of hard labor and brutal ritual, the final push that will get the runway done, the ancestors pleased, the planes back, and deliver to us the abundant cargo that we so, so deserve; featuring: merchant marines, brazen brass, exceedingly clever flying machines, cardboard communication, synchronized semaphore, lighthouses, ropework, Melanesia, control towers, morse code, dazzling displays of ritual dance, arbitrary and capricious blood letting, sacred Jello, red crosses, gigantic, gimpy John Frum, sea chanteys, and your helping hands when they are needed the most.
Beware of swashbuckling pirates, unsympathetic Red Cross workers, and John Frum. If you follow the signs and complete the ritual, you will be amply rewarded for your faith. Watch for the arrival of the Vanuatu Air Fleet for your first clue. Be late and you will miss it. Bring libations, a Metro card and be prepared to walk. After party at the Carriage House, 59th St. Bet 2nd & 3rd Ave.
Date: Sunday, October 2nd
Time: 4:00pm
Location: 14 Honewy Locusts Part (59th between 1st and 2nd)
