The official countdown begins!

The House of painT 2009 season kicks off
FRIDAY APRIL 24th
w/ LauncH! – An ‘09 HoP fundraiser!

House of PainT is back this summer, and to celebrate a three-month countdown to the July main event we’re hosting LauncH 2009 – a huge fundraising bash at Barrymore’s Music Hall on Friday, April 24.

The night will feature a 2on2 BBoy*Bgirl battle (w/prizes from our sponsors), a retrospective of NCR graf pieces and HoP footage on Barrymore’s giant screen, a silent auction and a special live performance on the mic by CROUP – while some of the scene’s dopest DJs keep the party going all night long!

As House of PainT has grown from +/-100 attendees in 2003 to nearly 1000 ppl braving the rain, hail and lightning last year, so have the infrastructure needs and costs for this amazing event. We are reaching out to the Ottawa community on this night to raise some very needed funds for this year’s jam which will be taking place Saturday, JULY 25th.

So join us @ Barrymore’s on April 24th for a killer party in support of this year’s jam.
