Yes, I guess it looks like I am the official events queen, but really I'm just trying to expose and open up minds -- things a lot of people should try. Also, I can't front on my talented STH familia, and my talented friend Parra, therefore I URGE you to come to this amazing event.

Parra - Bio:
30-year-old Dutch illustrator and designer Parra has decorated the Amsterdam underground with his playful, bizarre graphics that span a broad base of themes, from introspective to audacious and bawdy. The mostly self-taught artist seems to channel a Vintage form with curves, yet with a decidedly modern, post-pop approach. His vibrant images, which feature a distinctive hand-drawn feel, can be seen printed on paper in various exhibitions around the globe, on a flyer for a club near you, on the sleeve of a record, on billboards and silkscreened on tees which has resulted in collaborations with the likes of acclaimed companies Nike, Etnies Plus, Zoo York, Heneiken, Nirvana (Book Cover), Stones Throw, The Hundreds & countless others. Parra is represented by the London based agency Big Active . For more information, check out www.rockwellclothing.com
