This might feel like a slow week, but you’ll need to plan wisely. This weekend is packed with big events that span all day or more.

Friday, celebrate NYCxDesign (and Tom Dixon’s first New York showroom) with Dezeen at a block party in SoHo. Then rush to Williamsburg for the opening night of the Brooklyn Art Book Fair. They have programming scheduled all day Saturday too. But you’ll probably want to spend Saturday visiting all the idiosyncratic locales Lenka Clayton and Jon Rubin’s …Circle Through New York intersects. Alternately, head to the other side of the city for open studios in Sunset Park, which run until 6 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday.

There’s plenty more to do all over town this week, and even an excuse to catch the PATH to Journal Square if you’re local wanderlust can’t be sated by four boroughs of art events.

Both the Twitterati and the media sure love the updated Guggenheim app, and why not? The app lets you buy tickets, browse the collections, and keep up with current and upcoming exhibits, from within and without the museum. If phone memory isn’t an issue for you, the app is incredibly useful if you go to the Guggenheim a lot. If it is an issue, well, there’s nothing in the app that you can’t find elsewhere.
