Comics Stripped Exhibit



SWNYC was able to attend the opening of Craig Yoe's exhibit, Comics Stripped at The Museum of Sex.  If the surname sounds familiar, its because we have featured Craig's daughter, Valissa Yoe.  We now see where she gets her talents from!  As per ABC News, "The exhibit features 150 artifacts from the Great Depression to the present, including original drawings, illustrated books, comic books, magazines and videos."  

If you are in the NYC area, this is a must see exhibit!  Check out some images we snapped below:

"No Pants! Subway Ride"


Only in New York City in the dead of winter can we stroll right into flocks of people with no pants on!!! Today was the eighth annual "No Pants! Subway Ride" which is an annual event staged by Improv Everywhere every January in New York City. It started as a small prank with seven guys, who ride the subway appearing to be regular patrons then remove their pants at the same time running amuck from location to location pantless, and has grown into an international celebration of hilarity. Rather than babbling on, I'd rather just show you what went on this Sunday night in NYC...enjoy!

The Best of 2010!!!


SWNYC Editors, Mike Milan and Harvey Champagne, are pleased to share with you a first annual tradition. We each chose some of our best moments from this year to highlight and share with all of our lovely little street walkers and street walkers lovers. We're simply taking out the old year and bringing in the new one with the very essence of who and what SWNYC is and will remain, as we grow into what we'll become this upcoming year.

Before we give you the goods, we want to take the time to thank everyone who we have been privileged to feature this year, those who have grace our events covered and made it on the site, and lastly those who have allowed us to take their photos while on the streets so we can paint our perfect picture of The Big Apple. Without all of your contributions these streets would be rather empty, and truth be told...we really don't like empty streets. So without further hesitation, have at the goods that made SWNYC's 2010 a special year!

Mental Floss Trivia Show


We attended the Mental Floss Holiday Edition Trivia Show tonight hosted by Mental Floss Magazine. Mental Floss tours the country with their trivia show but this one was held here in NYC at the gorgeous Galapagos Art Space in the Dumbo area of Brooklyn. Tons of fellow knowledge junkies gathered from around the city to battle it out in some pretty fun trivia for great prizes from Kodak, Warner Bros. and Zinio Digital Magazines and Books. We even got to meet the founder of the magazine and chatted a bit so stay tuned for a possible upcoming feature! Check it out...





Naughty Kult Christmas Event


We attended the christmas party for Naughty Music and Kult Records on Friday night. It was quite a special night as the party was held at Bar 13, a change from it's usual residence at the legendary Sullivan Room. The boys in the booth slayed the dance floor with the beats as they usually do and we couldn't have asked for more. We even ran into Jenni from da Bronx herself alongside Brandon "B.Alex" Durrette who both came to celebrate our very own Harvey Champagne signing a deal with Kult to release a single early next year. Not to forget our usual favorite street walkers who never miss a party! Check it out...









Dance Strong!


Street Walkers NYC attended the Dance Strong Workshop last Sunday and got to dance it up per usual with our favorite instructors. Joe Buffa really turned up the kicks this go 'round and had us sweating it out and calling for the gods, but hey...it isn't a good dance class if it doesn't kick our ass, atleast that's what we believe. lol...Check out the photos and video we got and make sure you keep your eyes peeled in the future as we'll be posting future dates for you to attend if you dare...

Christmas in the City


The Holiday Season in NYC is something that needs to be seen.  Although not as bright as Las Vegas lights, NYC gives you a lot of breath-taking creativity and heart.  True to form, Street Walkers NYC walked through the streets and took pictures on 5th ave and around Rockefeller Center.  Yes, we braved the frigid temperatures to give you a little bit of what the city has to offer!  5th Ave has some of the most beautiful window displays! We hope that you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed taking them.  See if you can find a certain Mr Champagne jumping for the camera!

Out & About


When you live in NYC, and often times when you visit, everything can turn into a fast-forward blur.  Here are some parties and events that Street Walkers NYC attended.  Enjoy some moments from Logo's The A-List: NYC's Rodiney Santiago's calendar release party at Boxers NYC, fashion designer Edwing D'Angelo's trunk show (held at Ryan Nickulas's amazing Penthouse), and Lady Fag's Clubber Down Disco at The Chelsea Hotel.
