Upcoming: "Dear Pin-Up Girls" in Williamsburg Tomorrow

If you're looking for something to do tomorrow night, you can check out the "Dear Pin-Up Girls" fundraiser at the Laila Lounge in Williamsburg. It's the the second annual fundraiser for the New York Foundation for the Arts to benefit s.u.n.Arts shows and help support the emerging artists community in New York City.

The verbiage about it is as follows:

"Dear Pin-Up Girls" will be a subcultural mash-up of vaudeville-style performers with artists' renderings and interpretations of pin-up girls. As last year, the event will be a showcase of all-female contemporary street artists, painters, and photographers working with the subject of alternative pin-up style. Complimenting the artwork will be burlesque acts live on stage, including Scooter Pie, Tali, and Amber Star + friends.

Joining the burlesque, urban, graffiti, and rock scenes, "Dear Pin-Up Girls" will feature the artists Toofly, Erotica 67, Lady K Fever, Jen One, Lady Eyecon, Muck One, ACET, Esther Sanchez, G Piedmonte, Martina Secondo Russo, Blair Bauer, MadgeOne, Shiro, and Alice Mizrachi. Two DJs, Laura Rebel Angel and Onerios One, will be trading off to spin a diverse and eclectic selection of music between stage acts, while dressed in vintage pin-up attire.

An outdoor grill will be serving up hot (and soy) dogs, and free giveaways will be available throughout the evening.
The event is tomorrow (8/9) from 7PM-Midnight at Laila Lounge, which is at 113 N. 7th Street in Williamsburg. There's a $5 suggested donation at the door.
