new space and returning sponsor!!

December 2 is approaching quickly! We have secured new space this year - we're moving to the National Black Theatre, on Harlem's 125th Street. Due the overwhelming success of Shop N. Mingle last year we have moved this years festivities to a larger venue, a 64,000 square foot theater arts complex located in the heart of Harlem.

More space means more vendors... which means more shopping!! We hope to see you there.

We are also pleased to announce that Miss Jessie's will again be sponsoring the event. For all those that loved the Curly Buttercreme or the Curly Pudding, join us again this year for more goodies.

Stay tuned and we'll post more information as we get it!

Clothing...

... and housewares, OH MY!!


The place was packed...


...and there was hardly any room to move.


Professional makeup artists were on hand to provide free makeovers courtesy of Cover Girl Queen Collection...


... causing women to wait in line for their beauty consultations.


Better get there early next year.
