The Stoop 2009: A Free Celebration to Unite Community Through Art

Brooklyn, NY – A large part of what makes New York City so dynamic is that, with over 8 million people, New York’s true identity is really that of the many cultures these residents represent. Every summer, NYC provides some of the best programming for all to enjoy that cuts across many of these cultures. With this in mind, F.O.K.U.S. presents The Stoop 2009 hosted by PattyDukes and Rephstar of Circa ’95 on Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:00PM in Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn, NY, – a FREE arts celebration featuring bands, vocalists and artists from a range of genres. This annual community gathering brings together talented artists, community organizations, and the people of NYC in a space that serves as a physical crossroads between individuals and their unique artistic expressions.

With a headline performance from the highly energetic, live remix band Keys N Krates, and supporting sets from emerging talents such as Belikos, Caleb Curtis, Gist aka The Essence, The Kid Daytona, and The Approaching Storm (a youth marching band) this year’s event promises to be a fantastic and unique addition to NY’s roster of summer events.

Organizations like The Orange Giraffe, New York Chess & Game Shop, Bowery Arts and Science and Yelp! will host information tables at the event, and Photo by TONE will be on taking pictures of the event and attendees.

The Stoop 2009 will also feature giveaways (including food and drink) from our sponsors IZZE, The Fader, NY Kings/Frank151, Robert’s American Gourmet , Yelp!, Staple Design and Fresh Industries.

The Stoop is a vital opportunity to see various genres of music, art and community in one setting. Many great people and opportunities are present throughout our communities, but without awareness we do not learn about them and leverage such relations for the betterment of our communities and our youth.
