Get off your couch, wear a lei, enjoy ninecakes‘ special Lost cake creation, and have fun — you can Tivo the show to watch again later if you must. The deets are here. Who’s going?

THURSDAY: Death of News?
The Crouse Foundation, “your source for revealing the truth in fiction” celebrates 10 years of excellence by screening Double Negatives, their 2009 Award Artists’ Exhibition. Starting at 8pm at MonkeyTown, it’s $10 to see three nonfiction films, including Endangered Species, a satirical film about the last days of the printed news.

Beauties behind Bars
Our Drinks on the Doc series continues with an evening of prison beauty pageant films curated by Rachael Rakes. We’ll have $3 Stoli cocktails to facilitate your viewing pleasure. Miss Gulag is set in a post-Soviet Siberian prison camp, and La Corona — 2007 Academy Award nominee for short film — takes place during an annual pageant in a Columbian prison. $5 gets you the night of entertainment and dirt-cheap drinks. Doors at 7:30, films at 8pm.

A Bit Testy
Also this Thursday at Don Pedro’s, the indie music rag Impose Magazine presents Test Patterns, a show with Crystal Stilts, Gary War, Richmand’s Nerve City and Nice Face. The Brooklyn-based Stilts play a blend of enthusiastic LoFi garage punk that last year scored them an impressive 8.3 on Pitchfork, if you’re the type who’s happily spoon-fed a rating.

Can a Dolphin Grow a Mustache?
Just when you think you’ve seen it all in New York…a performance artist in a fish costume is giving free bouncy rides to all this Thursday night on the platform of the Lorimer L train stop, from 11pm-midnight.

FRIDAY: Get the Blues
Brooklyn-based photographer Louise Sturges — trained at the College of Santa Fe and the International Center of Photography — has her first solo show in two years this Friday from 7-10pm at COURT. Tangled up in Blue features photos in lovely watery blues. Take home your own mini sticker replicas of her photographs, and special candy from Papabubble as party favors!

Rebuilt
Gallery 1889 at the top of Greenpoint hosts RE/BUILD, a collaborative design exhibition with the works of six local designers and architects made from repurposed materials found on site, opening this Friday with a party at 7pm.

SATURDAY: Punk Roper
It’s tough to revisit the joy that was recess for most New Yorkers, but this Saturday, adults who just never really got over their love of the schoolyard past-time can take part in the Inaugural Punk Rope Olympics at the softball field in McCarren Park. There, teams of four compete for the Punk Rope cup by winning events like the Human Chariot and the Punkpourri Relay.

SUNDAY: Street Fest
Head to Park Slope for its annual 5th Avenue Street Fair, where, from 11am to 7pm, local merchants and restaurants from Sterling Street to 12th Street will move their wares and food into the street for easy browsing and snacking. Should you stop to take in the live music outside Southpaw (there’s also a second stage outside The Gate), be sure to head inside for the NYC Punk & Underground Record Fair, featuring more than thirty table’’ worth of vinyl.

Modern Music
As part of its renewed commitment to 21st-century art — see the new long-term installation 21: Selections of Contemporary Art From the Brooklyn Museum — the Brooklyn Museum hosts the Brooklyn Philharmonic as it premieres a number of pieces that combine symphonic ensembles with videos, turntables, and electronics. The afternoon event, titled Things That Make You Go Vroom!, starts at 2pm at the museum and is preceded by a gallery talk at 1pm. Get tickets.

SUNDAY: Eat a Spring Chicken
The Underground Food Collective, a group of culinary rabble rousers who wowed New York with their Pre-Industrial Pig Dinner back in January, are back in Brooklyn with as series of spring dinners. There are still a few tickets left for Sunday’s sup at Added Value Farm in Red Hook. The menu includes spring chickens, veal, foraged greens and early veggies from Added Value, as well as local beer. Get tickets.

See What the Buzz Is About
Only two Sundays left to catch the Colonists, a fantastical puppet show/morality play about an earthworm who wishes he could fly, running at Williamsburg’s Brick Theater at 3pm and 7pm. We hear the battery-powered flying bee puppets are not to be missed. Get tickets.

MONDAY: Fermentation 101
Sure, you love to drink beer, but have you ever really thought about how it’s made? Shane C. Welch, founder of Sixpoint Craft Ales and expert brewer, will enlighten you on a major part of the beer-making process: fermentation, and how it relates to other foods as varied as vinegar and kombucha. The evening, which includes tastings, starts at 7pm at Beer Table.

Summertime is coming soon, so be sure to pencil in a few dates for The L Magazine’s Summerscreen, at their new location — still within the McCarren Park limits — the cement area across the street from the Turkey’s Nest (the northwest corner of Bedford and N. 12th). We are especially psyched for Reality Bites (July 8), Evil Dead 2 (July 15), and oh so excited for Fame (August 5). Keep an eye out for an announcement of their full lineup on their site later this week. And follow The L on Twitter (don’t forget, we’re there, too).
