Vaughn Mims and Jordan Pitts are the founders of the HopOut, a Do-it-Yourself collective of music, art, food and more. What started out as a house venue for local musicians has quickly grown since its conception in 2022.
In the summer of 2022, the HopOut hosted the first Sweat Fest. It was a space for Fayetteville and Little Rock bands, art vendors and local music lovers at HopOut’s original house location. As the name suggests, it was hot. But it was a hit. This weekend, Hopout’s Vaughn Mims is hosting Sweater Fest, Sweat Fest’s “colder cousin,” as he puts it.
