Saturday, April 3rd 2010 in Union Square at 3:00 PM A massive pillow fight in New York City! Pillows fly and teddies soar as we converge on Union Square for a massive urban pillow fight! Swing and whack as you evade pillow-wielding assailants. Bring a non-feather pillow to Union Square and wait for the signal. Pillow fight!

The Cleanup Effort: Pillows For Puppies! We are pleased to announce the inaugural year of Pillows For Puppies (and Kittens!) We have arranged to donate leftover synthetic pillows to two Manhattan no-kill animal shelters to make bedding for puppies and kittens. There will be collection bins clearly marked, but please try to take your pillow with you if able. To volunteer, e-mail small.jennifer@gmail.com. If you would like to help clean up, please bring some trash bags :) We will distribute gloves and brooms.
