That Damned Show

This isn't a haunted house, but it is a perfect artistic event for the lovers of Halloween. An amazing two day art show/party in Detroit. The art was high quality and vast - something for everyone who likes the dark, creepy and twisted. The punch was blood red, red devil cake, reasonable prices on the artwork, a bar, and performances. My favorite works were a photo of girl dressed like Alice in Wonderland blending up a cat and the painting where Chairy eats Pee Wee Herman. My advice is to go early and get the chance to take your time and enjoy the artwork before the crowd comes in. Worth the $7 + donation of canned goods.

However, the crowd...museum manners were in the garbage can - as the evening went on it was harder and harder to be able to see past the self centered mannerless chatting art farts who weren't moving. It said to dress in red or as a devil - not a lot of takers on that unfortunately. Again, not the friendliest group. No real soul to the crowd. The art was too crammed on the walls - not sure why they didn't put artwork in both rooms instead of so high you couldn't see some of it. I also didn't understand why the performances were in the room with the art when there was a stage in the other room. It was very hard to see.

Maybe next year I will try the aphrodisiac dinner and masquerade ball. -Dottie. Trixie didn't go :(
