Got this email from my wonderful editor, Gersh Kuntzman, at the Brooklyn Paper

For those of you who have been wondering, the Brooklyn Paper took a Fouth of July break. But now, they’re  back to work, busily editing the next edition of the Brooklyn Paper, copies of which will hit the Key Food (and the sidewalk outside of your home) on Friday July 13th or Saturday the 14th.

Our own irascible shutterbug, Tom Callan, who has been shooting Brooklyn for the better part of three decades, has opened up his files for a retrospective of his work opening next Friday in Red Hook.

Some of our favorite Callan shots — many of which first appeared in The Brooklyn Paper — will be on display, lining the walls of the equally irascible Sunny’s Bar on Conover Street.

More than one toast will be raised to Callan at the opening party at 8 pm.

SMALL TYPE: “Photographs by Tom Callan,” Sunny’s Bar (253 Conover St., at Reed Street in Red Hook), July 20, 8 pm. Call (718) 625-8211 for information.
