Beaux Arts Ball 2006 (updated!)

The following was taken from http://www.telluridearts.org/events.html
The 2006 Beaux Arts Ball is February 4 at the Telluride Conference Center

Our theme this year is "Vegas, Baby!"
What happens at Beaux Arts stays at Beaux Arts!

In the tradition of nurturing creativity, TCAH hosts an annual fundraising gala that is both elegant and wild. Guests are encouraged to dress in costume or with an extra-special flair. We provide beautiful masks to each guest as well $10 in gambling chips to start the evening off with some excitement. The evening brings together a casino (with black jack, craps and poker), live entertainment, great dance music, a silent auction with hundreds of prizes, and of course a great party atmosphere with a tradition of lasting well into the night. The 2005 Ball will be held at the Telluride Conference Center to support and enhance the varied programs of TCAH.


Ok, here was the deal for the dress attire:
The invite gave 4 options:
1) Dress Up
2) Dress Down
3) Cross Dress
4) Dress Less

So I experimented with 3 of the 4

1) Dress Up






















3) Cross Dress





















4) Dress Less


























I ended up "Dressing Up" in the purple tux.
Below are some photos at the "END" of the night with friends.
