Pixel Pop: A Fusion of Art, Fashion and Music — Friday, July 16th @ The Mohawk

A couple of months ago, From The Mind Of Adi, Electric Promotions, and Team Fabrication decided to put on their thinking caps and come up with a cohesive shindig that combines their biggest passions. Pixel Pop, scheduled to take place on Friday, July 16th at The Mohawk, is the result of those brainstorming sessions. We’re excited to present this original event that brings together the wonderful worlds of art, fashion, and music. Doors open at 9:30 p.m. and cover charge is set at $5 ($7 for minors).
Team Fab’s Jen Rea and Erin Mikulenko are set to present a comic book inspired fashion collection, and local illustrator Chad Townsend will offer up an original art display at the event. Additionally, Jeannine Schafer and other Austin artists will be sketching on site as well. As for the music, outside, Candi and The Strangers and The Happen-Ins will entertain the masses, while later, inside, The Bubbles will bring down the curtain. Plus, DJ sets by uLOVEi throughout the course of the evening so bring those dancing shoes. And naturally, we’d love for you to treasure this evening’s memories forever. We’ve procured the services of not one, but two of our fabulous photog friends. Be sure to stop by both Annie Ray’s and Trevor Ray Thompson’s comic book themed photo-booths for a choice picture, or four.

Portions of the proceeds from the door will benefit HAAM, a local entity that ensures all musicians in town have access to affordable healthcare.
Finally, a big thank you to all our sponsors — Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Graham’s Texas Tea, Yelp, Birds Barbershop, Blue Note Bakery, Sirens Salon, Dynamic Reprographics, The WonderCraft, Sublime Stitching, 302 Designs, Jinxedaposed Clothing, Austin Aztex FC, TXRD Lonestar Rollergirls, and Austin Visual Arts Association.

October 16th, 2009 (Austin, TX) – On Saturday, October 24th Electric Promotions and TwoGroove are joining forces to create a spooky smorgasbord of fun. With awesome crafts, great music, delicious treats, amazing giveaways, and much more.

Taking visual cues from the Day of the Dead, this celebration will be nothing short of a creative blast with plenty of crafty goodness, skulls, and ghoulish treats. Watch a special screening of Army of Darkness while grooving to the sweet sounds of Focus Group, Panjoma, and the fabulous Team Fabrication DJs. Create DIY Halloween masks with The WonderCraft including special decorative treats from Sublime Stitching. Participate in a gummy bat/worm eating contest with the winner taking home VIP passes to one of the coolest Halloween events this year: Flip Scene’s Halloween Bash 2009! presented by Cherrypeel.com. Nibble on edible eyeballs and tasty coffin cake from Blue Note Bakery and quench your devilish thirst with red rum compliments of Treaty Oak. To top all that off, there will also be a guitar giveaway. That’s right one lucky person will go home with a brand new guitar!

Costumes are “encouraged and possibly rewarded”…but optional, either way be sure to jump in the photo-booth by Trevor Ray Thompson.  Cool giveaways and great prizes are in store! Like gift certificates to Bird’s Barbershop, passes to see Evil Dead the Musical at the Salvage Vanguard Theater, and more…

Entry is $6 (if you RSVP at www.mixxmake.com) or $8 at the door. The first 50 people through the door get a special treat including something from those thoughtful guys at Yelp.
