A new boutique called Fork & Pencil opened this weekend in the former Brooklyn Artisans Gallery space at 221a Court Street in Cobble Hill (though it appears the signage hasn’t been replaced yet!). “Fork & Pencil carries a boutique mix of antiques and housewares, curiosities and children’s toys,” says its website. In an unusual business model, the store owners plan to give away the profits to various non-profits that it thinks are making Brooklyn and the New York-region in general better places to live. There was a wine party on Saturday. Did anyone stop by? GMAP
