August 2012 at HyLo— Whimsy and Revelry

Join us tonight as we launch a month of whimsy and revelry at HyLo. Local absurdist theatre group the IRC (Idiopathic Ridiculopathy Consortium) will be popping up for a bazaar of the most bizarre order. Fake royalty will greet real people (you, our guests) in a receiving line for a fake celebration in honor of a real one: the 2012 Fringe Festival production Ivona, Princess of Burgundia. How’s that for a mouthful?

Mingle with the masses, and enjoy a few mouthfuls (real, not fake) of morsels from Catering by Miles, washed down with our favorite organic libations from Art in the Age. Meanwhile, play dress-up in artisanal creations from our hyperlocal merchants Diamond Tooth Taxidermy, NINObrand, Danny Fox, Melissa D’Agostino, and Jicqy les mirettes, then memorialize the moment with a Cocoagraph. Come find out for yourself how it feels to fête the make-believe.
