Score! Pop Up Swap @ 3rd Ward
Saturday, November 21st:
Score! Pop Up Swap is basically a massive free store. The concept is simple:
1) Everyone brings their old music, clothes, books, housewares, misc. radness
2) The items are sorted by a team of ninja volunteers and set on display like a department store
3) Once they’ve donated their items, attendees are invited to browse departments and take as much as they can carry. Everything is free!
4) The remaining items are collected and donated to charity.
Over 1,300 people came to our first Score! Pop Up Swap (pics HERE) in May, and this time, it’s going to be even better. We’ve got sweet hand-printed Score! tote bag, live screen-printing during the event by Bread & Butter Collective, complimentary COLT 45 from 1-2pm, Mimosas & Bloody Mary’s available at the bar, a custom Score! Mixtape, and all proceeds from the event go to support City Harvest.

MIH & Prospect Park Alliance presents: “It’s my Park Day!”
Saturday, October 24th:
MIHicon would once again like to thank the more than 3,000 people that spent the beautiful summer day with us in Prospect Park on Sunday, July 19th. It was by far our largest HEATWAVE to date and we thank you for your continued support in making this the highlight event of the summer.
Now - help us keep HEATWAVE alive!
In response to the publicly noted backlash from this year’s HEATWAVE, we have worked with Prospect Park and its leadership to spearhead a community service day in conjunction with the already existing, “It’s My Park! Day.”
The scheduled date for this event is Saturday, October 24th, from 10am to 2pm.
We are looking for your help, as supporters of HEATWAVE and MIHicon, in getting together as many volunteers as possible to help make this event a huge success and also cement a working rapport with Prospect Park and the Prospect Park Alliance for future events and of course HEATWAVES.
Will there be a HEATWAVE10.0?
The success of this event will determine that – fate lies in our hands!If you are willing to volunteer to help keep our parks clean and the HEATWAVE tradition alive – Remember the wonderful tradition HEATWAVE has become…
From 10am to 2pm
Please come and support!

The NYC Paddle will be held this year at Valentino Park in Red Hook, Brooklyn on August 1st from 10am-4pm. There will be exhibitors and lots of fun activities for kids and adults, with or without Autism!
