The #artlive Ball - January 24, 2015 Hosted by Harbourfront Centre with The House of Nuance & The House of Monroe
WHAT:
For the launch of World Stage 2015 Harbourfront hosts an unprecedented party collaboration between two of Toronto's most august families, House of Nuance and House of Monroe. This year's #artlive Ball boasts a bigger venue and even bigger beats than last season's sold-out #artlive Vogue Ball. If you missed last year's #artlive Vogue Ball and you're a rookie to the ball scene, you're in for a treat. A Ball is like a competitive fashion show, but with more dance, fashion and fierceness than could possibly be contained by that label. Reflective, refractive or totally transparent - dress as your most authentic self. No walking experience required. Join the World Stage team and 2015 artists as we celebrate the World Stage season at what could become one of Toronto's most iconoclastic institutions.
