Event: The J-POP SUMMIT Presents Vinyl Village (Sept 18)

For this week's J-POP SUMMIT Festival in Japantown, San Francisco, the VINYL VILLAGE will see art toys from Blamo, Dragatomi, Kuso Vinyl, Neon Monster and Skullyboom ~ the genesis of which rests on the shoulders of "Toy Maven" Jeremy Brautman, whom NEW PEOPLE had approached 'to invite Bay Area vinyl visionaries to take part in the Summit for the first time. As a result, get ready for an exciting day packed with music, art, special guests, live performances, a film screening and TOYS.'

"The all-day event (on September 18th) begins at 11AM and spreads out across multiple stages in Japantown infusing the air with entertainment until 6PM. Come see Gothic Lolitas, the latest kawaii from Harajuku and graffiti by Estria. Hear rap, rock and remixes. Shop the Vinyl Village, Artists Alley and Anime Lane. Compete in the Pocky Chow Down. Enter the Yelp! raffle. Play SEGA’s new games. Meet Mori Chack. Sample sweets and sushi in the gourmet food court. And so much more."
