GET DOWN at Sundae Sermon’s Kickoff at El Museo Del Barrio

El Museo Del Barrio was the place to be on Sunday, February 26 as Harlem Parks to Park program, the dance party series Sundae Sermon, took over El Museo Del Barrio in East Harlem, New York.  Bridging the East and West sides of Harlem, the series united the community for an afternoon of soulful house music and education.  GET DOWN partnered with Sundae Sermon to raise HIV/AIDS awareness and kickoff the Aids Walk Campaigns of FACES NY and Harlem United, two New York based HIV community-based organizations.  GET DOWN helped organize the donations for the two charities and, along with Anita Bryant of A-Marketing, created goodie bags with donations from companies such as Fairway Market, Sokenbicha Teas, NY Sports Club of Harlem, Harlem Doggie Day Spa, Sesame Workshop, Land Yoga, Modell’s, A-Loft of Harlem and Jeffrey Richards Associates, producers of The Gershwins’ PORGY AND BESS.

Sundae Sermon will continue at El Museo Del Barrio on March 25 and April 29.

About GET DOWN CAMPAIGN

GET DOWN is a safe sex public service announcement targeting teens and young adults. With the GET DOWN public service announcement, we hope to tackle the topic of unprotected sex among teens who are currently engaging in sexual activity. Some may of these youth be experimenting with multiple sexual partners, inclusive of the GLBT and YMSM (Young Men Having Sex With Men) lifestyles. We hope to stimulate dialogue and understanding around these issues and encourage teens and young adults to stop and think, ask questions, and seek guidance before taking the huge step of becoming sexually active. BUT, if they are sexually active already, NO MATTER HOW YOU GET DOWN, PROTECT YOURSELF AND GET TESTED.
