Join in the fundraising fun

Greenpoint Open Studios (GOS) is a weekend long celebration from October 1 -3, where artists open their studios in an effort to build, sustain, and support a thriving creative community. But to make it happen the right way, GOS needs a little bit of money.

So, join Greenpoint arts organizers, artists, enthusiasts, and what may very well be the whole of north Brooklyn hipsterdom at the India Street Mural ([map](http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s%5Fq&hl=en&geocode=&q=west+street+and+india+street,+brooklyn,+ny+11222&sll=40.731226,-73.960497&sspn=0.013285,0.028753&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=India+St+%26+West+St,+Brooklyn,+Kings,+New+York+11222&z=17&layer=c&cbll=40.731758,-73.959577&panoid=TNQO0laHd2jUwVpACIb5Dg&cbp=12,307.67,,0,8.29)) for a titillating, water balloon infused game of Dodgeball. A $10 raffle ticket enters you into a match with a chance of winning half the pot per game. The other half supports GOS.

This is your chance to show off your water balloon throwing skillz. You can [RSVP on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=153815004629437&index=1) or check out the [GOS website](http://www.greenpointopenstudios.org/?ref=hyperallergic.com) for more info.
