As you may know by now vitaminwater uncapped LIVE opens TONIGHT! 2217 14th street (14TH AND FLORIDA NW).
This is the first of 15 nationwide uncapped’s happening this year (and will be hard to beat, if we say so ourselves). We have the exhibit opening for Art Whino’s G40 summit from 6 to 9pm and then there is a big Fatback/Tender Loin/QUE SERA jammy jam going on. In our opinion it is pretty much the single greatest thing ever: vitaminwater, BYT and Art Whino teams have been there building this funhouse for you and the final product is something we’re all just so very, very proud of (even if we lost a couple of fingers and our sanity in the process) we hope you’ll come see us once, twice, 20 times in between now and June 17th, when we close (aside from Mondays, when we sleep).
What you can expect: over 200 artists taking over 25000 sq.ft (4 floors, make sure to check them ALL OUT), pretty awesome live shows/dance parties/panels/etc (working schedule of events is available here, but we will be updating them every week), a daytime lounge with free wi-fi and endless (ENDLESS) free hydration by vitaminwater (+ a cash bar, and yes, we do have ATMs on site), great happy hour deals courtesy of Living Social Instant App and more.
PERTINENT TWITTER UPDATED INFO: follow: @BYT, @vitaminwater, @ArtWhino – and use #uncapped hashtag. COOL? (cool)
BUT-for now, lets all just enjoy these photos of the space (before the masses descend on it)
