INTRODUCING: “SOCIAL PERSISTENCING DJ-THONS”
Dear Ithaca, Tompkins County, and our neighboring communities:
We the DJs... your friendly neighborhood party-starters, fun-makers, and help-you-relieve-stress-through-shaking-your-booty-ers... miss you. This is obviously a stressful time for us all, and while the true heroes among us (medical workers, first responders, and more) are performing herculean feats on a daily basis, most people have been sitting home and wishing they could be helping more. So let’s!
Beginning at 6pm Sunday April 5th, 2020, the Ithaca DJ Festival will be hosting an ongoing series of live-streaming DJ-thons to raise money for various local initiatives who are in need during this challenging time. Each DJ-thon will be 6 hours long and feature 3 local DJs each spinning 2 hours of music to get you grooving. We’ll have a video chat room set up so you can show off your quarantined dancing, head-nodding, or whatever. These events will be family friendly for the most part (but we won’t be censoring lyrics, fyi).
We will post the DJ schedule, including fundraising goals and ways to donate at ithacadjfestival.com, as well as our social media.
Every bit helps. Looking forward to seeing you on the virtual dancefloor!
Love love love to you all.
