“When the night comes, we shall rise”
On All Hallows’ Eve, the Dairy Arts Center invited you to The Vampire Ball, a decadent realm of shadows and desire straight from your most delicious nightmares. Our nocturnal coven welcomed you to a world of ballgowns and bloodlust, opera gloves and neon lights, 1890s grandeur meeting 1990s underworld.
For one night only, creatures of the night — their fiends, friends, and foes — gathered for an evening of dark opulence and electric indulgence:
– Guests danced to death in the grand ballroom with DJ sets from Stella Witcher and Cyber Princess, where sultry techno met pop mayhem
– They met the Vampire Queen (Riley Anne Martin) and bartered for eternal life deep in the crypt
– They embraced the thrall with live performances from Thee Fiasco and Saline Conjure
– Fangs were sharpened with vampire cinema screenings from our Friday Night Weird film series until the witching hour
– Visitors lost themselves in immersive art installations and decadent surprises lurking in every shadow, including projection mapping from Eren Autumn
– And everyone satiated their bloodlust with one complimentary Blood Bag Cocktail included with each ticket
Guests came dressed to distress — the more extravagant, the better. It was a night for the wicked, the glamorous, and the unholy.
All proceeds benefited the immortal vitality of the Art and Cinema Programs at The Dairy.
