Flappers, live jazz for final summer speakeasy tonight

flappers.jpgThe Jazz Age reaches its finale this evening — or at least it’s the end of summer speakeasy nights at the Museum of the City of New York.

The Moonlighters will play music of the 1920s and ‘30s. The museum has arranged for a few ringers on the dance floor — professional dancers in vintage clothes — as well as Charleston dance lesson at 6:10 p.m.

Kevin Fitzpatrick, author of “A Journey into Dorothy Parker’s New York” and co-editor of “The Lost Algonquin Round Table,” will speak about the Jazz Age at 7 p.m.

Cocktails will be served on the museum’s front terrace. Vintage dress is optional.

Admission is $12, which gets you a free cocktail and entry into many of the museum galleries.
