<h1>How do you create a home in which art can survive?</h1>
​In this 90-minute artmaking workshop, attendees will learn to make a miniature zine and then use it as a container for a meditation on the spaces we inhabit and the objects that support our creative practices.
​Taking inspiration from <a href="https://circlingcircling.substack.com/?utm_source=luma" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Circling</a>’s artist features, which invite artists to share a glimpse behind the scenes of their art practice using material objects and spaces as an entry point, this workshop invites community members to consider the same question. How do you make space for your creative work? What are the tools, supports, and material objects that facilitate your practice?
​Participants will first be guided through the process of creating a versatile mini zine out of paper, and then work through a series of prompts from a drawing warmup to a brainstorming activity, an object study, and a reflection, before sharing out with the group.
<h2>​Your registration includes:&nbsp;</h2>
<ul><li>​All artmaking supplies</li><li>​Facilitated zine-making experience with take-home instructions provided</li><li>​Guided artmaking and share out in community</li><li>​Subscription to <a href="https://circlingcircling.substack.com/?utm_source=luma" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Circling</a></li></ul>
​💫 All ages welcome! Share this event with a friend you'd like to join you.
​💞 Pay what you can. $5-$30 range suggested. 🎟 RSVP&nbsp;here:&nbsp;<a href="https://luma.com/lzangdkb" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">luma.com/lzangdkb</a>
​
<h2>​From past participants:</h2>
<blockquote>​“I loved the progression from basic paper folding to warm-up doodles to written lists of inspirations, to drawing + journaling. I really enjoyed this session! It was so helpful to [get unstuck] to draw again.”</blockquote>

<blockquote>​“I love the ease and calm of the topic and the hosts. It was so easy to be creative when the prompts are so accessible.”</blockquote>

Brooklyn Business Owners Turn to Criminal Usury Law as Merchant Cash Advance Disputes Land in Kings County Court
A growing number of MCA agreements are being challenged as "disguised loans" in Kings County Supreme Court and the Eastern District of New York &mdash; and 2026 disclosure rules are adding a new line of defense.
BROOKLYN, N.Y. &mdash; For Brooklyn business owners caught in merchant cash advance debt, the legal ground has shifted. Disputes that once seemed unwinnable are now being fought &mdash; and in some cases won &mdash; in Kings County Supreme Court and the Eastern District of New York (EDNY).
At the center of the shift is a single argument: that many merchant cash advances marketed as "purchases of future receivables" are, in economic substance, loans. When those loans carry effective interest rates of 100%, 200%, or more, they collide with New York Penal Law &sect; 190.40, the state's criminal usury statute. A contract found to be criminally usurious can be rendered void and unenforceable &mdash; a far stronger outcome for a business owner than a negotiated payment plan.
That argument now has a second layer. New York's Commercial Financing Disclosure Law requires funders to provide standardized disclosures of the true cost of financing, and the New York Department of Financial Services has been investigating funders who fail to comply. Brooklyn business owners are increasingly raising disclosure failures &mdash; no disclosure at all, understated APRs, undisclosed broker commissions, or funders operating unregistered &mdash; as a defense that can stand independently of, or alongside, a usury challenge.
The urgency is driven by enforcement speed. Once a funder obtains a judgment, it can serve a restraining notice under New York's CPLR on banks holding a business's operating accounts, freezing funds &mdash; often the same day &mdash; at Chase, TD Bank, Bank of America, and others. A frozen account can halt payroll within hours.
But a restraining notice tied to a judgment obtained through an improper Confession of Judgment, or a funder that ignored mandatory disclosure rules, can be challenged and potentially vacated. Emergency options include revoking ACH authorization and filing for injunctive relief in Kings County Supreme Court.
For Brooklyn owners juggling multiple stacked positions, defense often means coordinating across several funders at once &mdash; a process that turns on the sequencing and priority of competing claims and generally requires experienced counsel.
Brooklyn business owners facing MCA collections, a frozen bank account, or a judgment entered without their knowledge can review their defense options and connect with an experienced attorney through CredibleLaw's Brooklyn network at&nbsp;<a href="https://crediblelaw.com/brooklyn-mca-defense-attorney/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">crediblelaw.com/brooklyn-mca-defense-attorney/</a>.
