DANCING, YEAH >>>
Tacoma Art Museum is going all out to ring in 2013 the right way - with some art, some food, some drinks and a whole lot of party. You want to do New Year's all glitzy and ritzy? Tacoma Art Museum's Studio 54 New Year's Eve Bash is the place.
"Unleash your inner celebrity," tempts Tacoma Art Museum's website. "Be glamorous. Be free. Be you."
The Andy Warhol exhibit will be open for the wandering. Once you're done hobnobbing amongst the art, proceed with wild abandon to the dance floor. Upon said dance floor, enjoy spiffy dance beats by DJ Marc Sense of Integral DJ. If the dance floor is where you shine, join in the dance contests to strut your stuff. Other perks of the evening include dance performances by Studio 6 Ballroom, drinks by The Mix, a photo booth by 1000 Words, and food and snacks at the café.
Wear your finest or dress in costume - from Venetian masks to quirky creations, Studio 54 welcomes your costumes. Come up with the best costume in the land and there may be a prize in it for you.
There are three levels of tickets: the Party Pass at $50, Gold Level VIP Pass at $100, and Platinum Level VIP Pass at $150. VIP access gets you into special areas, a private no host bar, and other private areas. Platinum Level allows you to dance the night away on an illuminated dance floor.
TACOMA ART MUSEUM, MONDAY, DEC. 31, 9 P.M., $50-$150, 1701 PACIFIC AVE., TACOMA, 253.272.4258
