Feathers fly and teddies soar as you converge for a giant urban pillow fight! Swing and whack as you evade pillow-wielding assailants. Bring a soft pillow at 3 PM and wait for the signal. Pillow fight!

Costumes and funky pillows encouraged :)

for more info, e-mail love (at) newmindspace.com

Rules: Please follow these guidelines to ensure a safe and fun pillow fight for everybody!

+ Soft pillows only!
+ Swing lightly, many people will be swinging at once.
+ Do not swing at people without pillows or with cameras.
+ Remove glasses beforehand!
+ Wait until the signal to begin.
+ Spectators welcome, but consider bringing a pillow ;)

Cleanup: We will be performing an intensive cleanup operation after this event, with a Leave No Trace ideal in mind. If you would like to volunteer for the cleanup, sign up on the wiki :)

Environmental statement: You do not need to buy a new pillow for this event. Feather pillows need to be replaced every 12 months anyway, and if you are looking to switch to synthetic (or if you have some old pillows lying around) this is a perfect way to get rid of them! You can keep your synthetic pillows clean by using two pillow cases.

Vegan feathers: To make vegan "feathers", grab 4 meters of long, white fun fur. Cut the sheet into 1"x1" squares and place them in a pillow case along with any loose strands. You're set! Keep in mind, this method is animal-friendly but less biodegradable.

See you there!

Down can be collected in a variety of ways. Birds which provide the feathers may be used for other purposes, for example to provide meat. Some birds are killed solely for their down, while some birds (particularly some geese) are periodically live-plucked of their breast feathers. Some birds, such as the eider duck, line their nests with down, and such down might be harvested safely after the young leave the nest.

Animal welfare groups consider the collection of down to be a painful procedure and cruel, particularly since birds must undergo down collection repeatedly.
