DUMBO, BROOKLYN — Live at The Archway, a free weekly performance series under the Manhattan Bridge produced by the DUMBO Business Improvement District, is back on this Thursday.

At 6 p.m. Harlem singer Lynette Williams will take the mic. Organizers describe Williams' sound as fusing a variety of genres, including jazz, soul and pop.

Williams will be followed by a set from DJ Duct Tape.

The evening will also feature The Poofs, a creation of puppeteer Kate Brehm who describes them as "nondescript puppet objects which confound reason." They also confound description — so here's a video of a poof performance:
