Events: Catalyst 8's Mad Hatter Tea Party

It's almost here.  I can't wait.


Tomorrow night is the 2nd Annual Catalyst 8 Mad Hatter Tea Party: 7:30-10:30 @ The Allan House.  There will be food, signature drinks, models doing some fashion stuff, and burlesque.  It's going to be awesome. 


I don't think I've mentioned it before on this site, but I am one of the event chairs.  Ergo, I have a pretty good idea of what's in store for tomorrow and I'm pretty excited about it.   I met with the dancers last week, and their planned routine seemed ever better than the YouTube preview.   Also, a couple of personal friends are bartending and I know they'll add to the fun of the event.


Drinks are being provided by our friends at Maker's Mark, Tito's Vodka, and Independence Brewery.   J. Black's will be passing around some tasty snacks, and there will be other food to enjoy.  There will also be a photo booth and some live sketch artists.  I will most likely be the MC of the event, and there's a good chance that when I'm not introducing folks I'll be roaming around with some cameras looking for guests having an exceptional amount of fun.

Tickets to the Mad Hatter Tea Party are free to Catalyst 8 members, and $35 for non-members (if they are still available). Catalyst Members must RSPV in advance in order to receive said free admission. Funds raised by this event go to support Catalyst 8's Boost Program.
