Billabong will host the 4th annual Design For Humanity benefit with a new location set in the heart of the legendary New York Streets Backlot at Paramount Studios in Hollywood. The Backlot recreates eight distinct areas of New York City for a massive outdoor block party with two concert stages, bikini runway fashion show, warehouse art show, food trucks, hit+run live t-shirt screenprinting, Invisible Children sensory exhibit, street performers, pop-up concept shop, and dethkills live art installations...this will truly be an unforgettable night!

Design For Humanity is Billabong’s charitable division that seeks to raise funds and awareness of worthy causes, all the while celebrating art, music and fashion in the process. 100% of ticket sales will be donated to charity. Billabong is proud to announce the 2010 beneficiary is Invisible Children, an organization dedicated to ending the longest running war in Africa and bring peace to Uganda where the soldiers are children abducted from their homes and forced to fight. Invisible Children is a movement seeking to end this conflict and bring them home, rebuild schools, educate future leaders, and provide jobs in Uganda. By inspiring youth culture to value creativity, idealism and sacrifice, the movement fuels the most effective, adaptive and innovative programs in the world. With your ticket purchase to Design for Humanity, you are helping to change lives.

Come ready to buy art, buy a t-shirt, buy a grilled cheese sandwich or just dance your pants off. Proceeds from the art show sales, screenprinting, food trucks and bikini collaborations will be donated to Invisible Children.
