Listen to live local music while admiring the homes in Victorian Flatbush as part of this porch concert series called Operation Gig. Concerts run on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from May through September.
During the summer, you can find the shows at various porches within walking distance of the Cortelyou Road stop on the Q train in the Ditmas Park neighborhood. Keep an eye here for the full schedule.
Operation Gig started amid the pandemic when the world's music clubs shut down. The series highlights some of Brooklyn's best up-and-coming professional musicians. All crowd donations go directly to the musicians.
As the event organizers put it: "This is as grass-roots NYC culture as you can find." Cheers to that.
