6:05 Presents: The Creative Space and The Beirut Groove Collective

Thursday, Aug 30, 2012
6:00pm -> 10:00pm
6:05 at depechemode

Join 6:05 at depechemode for a Happy Hour of another kind: it is hosting the closing event of The Creative Space, where winning bids from the week-long silent auction [of their new Fall collection] will be announced.

So meet them for drinks, some celebration, and tunes as The Beirut Groove Collective lays their funked-up soul on the decks at 6:05®.

All proceeds from the sale of The Creative Space’s collection will return to the designers program’s sustainability.

The Creative Space Beirut is a non-profit educational program for fashion design, where aspiring fashion designers of diverse backgrounds collaborate with one another under the guidance of designers from Parsons the New School for Design, NYC. The proceeds from sales will return to the student designers and to the sustainability of the program.

The Beirut Groove Collective is the Middle-East’s premiere stop off for all things funky. From jazz, rhythm and blues, soul, funk, rare-groove and hip-hop, the groovy DJs from the BGC are out to set things straight: “Funk ain’t noise pollution”.
