Paul with hotdog unicorn headgear and me with Slurpee hat |
So if you know me even a little bit you know that i don't go out much. I like to have a good time, sure, but partying until dawn is not my usual m.o. unless, of course, the party is
CHERYL. CHERYL started two years ago by a
group of stylish people who mostly worked in museums. Its tagline is "the dance party that will ruin your life" and every month features a different theme and a
video that can only be described as a piece of art to go along with it. The party has gained momentum and attention and moved to progressively bigger venues. I love the fact that while dressing up is encouraged it's not required and that it attracts a mixed crowd of, well, pretty much everyone who likes weird (but not that weird) arty and really honestly fun and unpretentious parties. This time around the theme was 7-11 and the Village Voice showed up to take pictures.
Thanks to my handily constructed Slurpee hat apparently I was quite photogenic. Who knew I would be a nightlife icon for a fleeting second? Check out the rest of the Voice's photos
here. I also put photos on my
flickr stream.
