Songwriting, Comedy and More This Week

- In Brooklyn for one night only, the critically acclaimed talk show Employee of the Month debuts at The Bell House. Join comedian Catie Lazarus as she interviews and honors Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, Robert Smigel, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Mo Rocca, and Lady Rizo.

- School may have started, but that doesn't mean the kids don't need to be entertained. The Brooklyn Children's Museum has a lot going on this week, including Bug Out, its insect education program at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, and Nature Tots, its environmental program that runs multiple times Wednesday.

- Free Spirits Songwriting Workshop inspires kids ages 6-12 to pick up a guitar, grab a microphone, and start writing powerful, fun, original music. 

- The Brooklyn Ostomy Support Group, a group of Ostomy patients and their families, meet Tuesday at 2 p.m. at Maimonides Medical Center.

- We've got some rain in the forecast Monday, but much of the rest of the week looks clear. Planning an event? Let us know in the comments.
