NYC Digs: This Weekend: International Pillow Fight & Japan Auction

This weekend held a smorgasbord of festivities here in NYC. The International Pillow Fight took place in Union Square along with an Art Auction Fundraiser for Japan in the Lower East Side. I hopped around to many things here and there from the Gansevoort Hotel in the Meatpacking District to a wonderful walk along the Hudson River on Sunday, capping off a perfect start to the first real Spring weekend NYC has yet to see for 2011.

Feathers rained from the ground up as crazy pillow fighters went all out. My friends got very into the fun as you can see...camo-check, double pillows-check, game face-check-check!

The Art Auction for Japan was in a random hole in the Lower East Side, as most things are, and super cool. Hip music provided the perfect setting for this broad range of art for a cause. I loved that there was an artist creating his piece on-site.

 My favorite was the painting of the blonde it emitted so much emotion. The 3D mixed media piece of a city building was by far the most interesting and intricate. Every detail was accounted for from tiny trash bags to the interior spaces in each window...and it was all from recycled material!

Did you have a great weekend mes cheries?
