On Wednesday night, Brooklyn’s own celebrity judges marched up, down and across a rainy Atlantic Avenue to find the store windows that best exemplified this year’s eco-friendly theme.
They retired to restaurant Moxie Spot for much needed libations and intense deliberations. The judges, world-renowned choreographer, Mark Morris, film and stage actress Hope Davis, illustrator and children’s book author Tad Hills, and designer Kate Cusack took their job seriously.
After orders of vegetable dumplings, quesadillas, sweet potato fries and drinks, the judges made their final choices.
