Make sure to dust off your worst (or best?) holiday sweater for MOCA’s ugly sweater fest tonight! Sponsored by MOCA, the Asian American Writers’ Workshop, and Hyperallergic, the festivities will include live music from rapper Masia One and tunes from DJ Mas. Comedian Sheng Wang will host the festivities. Come enjoy spiked punch and compare ugly sweater patterns and stories with other holiday revelers! Best of all, part of the proceeds will be donated to CAAAV towards their advocacy work in helping post-Sandy Chinatown.
The party starts at 8 pm tonight, at 215 Centre Street in the Museum of Chinese in America. Make sure to RSVP to programs@mocanyc.org if you haven’t yet. Admission is $20, and $15 for MOCA members.
And tomorrow night from 6 to 9 pm, you can continue supporting Hurricane Sandy relief efforts by attending a fundraising dinner co-hosted by Chinatown Partnership and Chinatown Business Improvement District. For $25, you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet at Grand Harmony on 98 Mott Street. All dinner proceeds will go towards businesses in Chinatown. Buy your tickets here. You can also contact Chinatown Partnership at 212-346-9288 or info@chinatownpartnership.org for more information, or if you’d like to be a sponsor.
