KICKSTARTER

Want to dance with us?

Saturday, October 13, 2012 from 7:00pm until 1:00am at TreeHaus: 94 Monroe St. bt. Bedford Ave and Franklin Ave. in Brooklyn NY

For the first time ever Trade School New York is open in the fall! We want to celebrate the traditional school season by wrapping up all the brilliant foliage, practical layers, freshly sharpened pencils and crisp apples in a crust and baking them. Yum. Come to a pie social hosted by housing cooperative Treehaus to share YOUR idea of a delicious pie. Sweet? Savory? A delectable swirl of each? Prizes awarded to Most Original, Prettiest, Tastiest and Failure pie-because one person's failure is another person's hangover breakfast food.

Then burn off the calories on the dance floor to the stylings of DJ Make Believe and DJ Lil Lil. You'll be sliding around the floor like a it's a greased pie tin. The last party we had was pretty wild (that's where these photos are from).

Remember we need eaters as well as bakers. People with their own forks and plates get a humanitarian award. Jello shots and $2 beers will be for sale until they run out or we get tired of manning the bar. Finally, wear your pie finest whilst you pie dinest.

Until we meet, check out our classes at http://tradeschool.coop/newyork/class, join our FB page at http://www.facebook.com/groups/TradeSchoolNY/, and let us know you're coming to the party at https://www.facebook.com/events/429032347133624/?fref=ts.

Yours,
TSNY

Please tell your friends to give $100 if they can, because we have 9 days to raise $4,500... if 45 people give $100 each this week, we'll make it!

Also, we hope to see you on the 4th of July at Industry City Distillery. $10 will get you a feast of two roast pigs, top-secret vodka, homemade pies, and more, with all proceeds to benefit Trade School Everywhere. RSVP for that here: http://thecityfoundry.com/party

Thanks again,

PS: Trade School Barcelona just opened! Trade School Manila and Trade School Bangkok are nearly open, and Trade School Oakland is on it's way.

Hey supporters,

Our friends at Industry City Distillery (a brand new distillery in Brooklyn) are hosting a benefit for us on the 4th of July! We'll feast on two whole roast pigs, homemade vodka, fancy ice pops, lemonade cocktails, homemade pies, and more. This is a rare chance to see their swanky fabrication lab, secret distillation process, and meet some friendly geeks with super-human skills.

It's $10 to enter for Kickstarter Backers like you (or barter to enter if you bring some special grub) with all proceeds to benefit Trade School Everywhere.
