(Please read full description for important event details)  Edward Carriere presents the Art City Bouffant Ball, a celebration of fashion and fantasy hair! Each year, Art City hosts a fundraising party presented in a different theme. The theme carries through in the experiences, sights, sounds and fashion guests wear especially for the event. This year, we celebrate fantasy hair. It's a chance to carry the ultimate coiffure atop your head. For some, it's an opportunity to wig out! For those who keep their hair covered, hair themed clothes or accessories are encouraged. Throw together an outfit, and make sure to leave time to make a statement with your hair. This is all for the good cause of supporting Art City, and its accessible art programming for children and community members of all ages and abilities!  “Love is in the hair.” Featuring music by DJ Hunnicut, DJ Konjo, House of Gold Diamonds, and Wanda G.; photo Booth photography by Karen Asher, headshot photography by Ally Gonzalo; and Bouffant Bar by Edward Carriere Stylists!
