Cultural Festivals' Fancy Pants Dance Party
On Friday, January 19, 2007 The Cultural Festivals (Saint Louis Jazz and Heritage Festival, the Saint Louis Art Fair and the Big Read) held their Fancy Pants Dance Party at the Black Cat Theatre in Maplewood. Guests enjoyed delicious food, libations and dancing to music provided by DJ Needles. They were also checking out bedazzling and bejewelled fancy pants that all were encouraged to wear. The silent auction items included original art donated by Saint Louis Art Fair Artists and signed copies of new works by celebrated authors. The mission of the Saint Louis Jazz Festival is to stimulate awareness of the broad and diverse array of contemporary jazz music and to nurture and encourage the understanding and appreciation of jazz as a musical art form. Though performance and education, the Saint Louis Jazz Festival will collaborate with and serve the community. Saint Louis Art Fair features the works of hundreds of professional artists in one of the country’s most competitive and successful juried art exhibitions. The Big Read features publishers, book-sellers, national authors, readings, book signings, panel discussions, workshops, demonstrations and an interactive children's area with readings, costumed characters and projects that engaged the young reader. The Big Read is free and open to the public. For more information about the Cultural Festivals, please call Liz Reeves at 314-863-0278 or visit their website at www.culturalfestivals.com. |
