At an exclusive picnic-themed party for media and tastemakers, OFF! introduced:
  • OFF! Clip-On provides mosquito protection without applying anything else to the skin. Clip it to your purse, belt, beach bag or lawn chair, and relax. No spray, no mess.
  • OFF! Mosquito Lamp works for up to six hours and protects an area up to 10 x 10.

Keep the mosquitoes away from your next backyard barbecue.

OFF! also offered a few tips on how to stay bug-free this summer:
  • Peak mosquito hours are from dusk to dawn!
  • Sweat attracts mosquitoes, and believe it or not, so does breathing. So make sure to stay protected when participating in sports or other outdoor activities.
  • To avoid bug bites, avoid fruity and floral fragrances.  That means, skip scented soaps, lotions, perfumes and hair products if heading outside.
  • Spray yourself as well as your clothing to help keep mosquitoes at bay.

 To help you #GetBackOutThere, OFF! has an Instagram contest through August 18, 2015. Just share a photo for a chance to win $10,000 towards an epic backyard makeover.
  • Step 1: Take a picture of your favorite outdoor activity.
  • Step 2: Follow @OffOutdoors on Instagram and tag: #GetBackOutThere #OFFSweeps
  • Winners will be randomly selected after the close of the contest on August 18.

DanceAfrica 2024 Returns to Brooklyn Academy of Music

The DanceAfrica Bazaar is one of my favorite annual street fairs. I love to watch folks show up and show out in their flyest Afrocentric garb and to shop for handmade beaded bracelets and earrings from the African vendors.  And when I'm fortunate enough to snag a ticket as I did this year courtesy of BAM, I enjoy watching the kinetic African dancers (this time the country featured is Cameroon) during the spirited and spirit-filled DanceAfrica performance at the Howard Gilman Opera House.   (Photos courtesy of BAM/Tony Turner) If you want to join in the fun, here's the weekend lineup that's truly for the culture.

I feel most alive when I am listening to music and dancing.  As a spectator and fan, some of my fondest moments of watching dance performances have been witnessing the dignity and grace of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Every time I see the Ailey company, I am inspired, moved, and grounded in the beauty and complexity of the African American experience.  Photo by Paul Kolnik For me, the highlight is always "Revelations," Mr. Ailey's three-part ode to his upbringing in the Black Baptist church. The three sections -- "Pilgrim of Sorrow"; "Take Me to the Water"; and "Move, Members, Move" -- tell the story of African American faith and persistence from slavery to freedom. Over the weekend,  I had the pleasure of taking an outdoor Community Workshop in downtown Brooklyn, where we learned some of the choreography for "Revelations." I beamed from ear to ear...
