The "Dancefloor Destroyer" Comes to Hastings!  

World Champion DJ Finals Champion, DJ Shiftee will be making not one, but TWO appearances spinning at The Purple Crayon. We wanted to offer teens a quality night out, so we went ahead and hired a world class DJ who not only rocks the turntables, but is a model of how a path of passion and action can lead to the perfect career.  DJ Shiftee grew up in Westchester, got his first turntables as a Bar Mitzvah gift, studied math at Harvard and is now a three-time medal holder internationally, and the first American ever to win the DMC Battle for World Supremacy. In addition to destroying dancefloors around the world, Shiftee teaches electronic music production and is an adjunct professor at NYU.

 

Teen Dance Social with DJ Shiftee

May 5th, $7

Tickets to the Teen Dance Social are available for purchase at  

The Purple Crayon, or online.  

 

And for those non-teens out there who want to party, get ready--DJ Shiftee is back for a 21+ night on June 2nd! Stay tuned!
