My friend Tracey and I put on a Halloween Party to benefit the Baltimore Architecture Foundation, where she’s the Director and I am on the Board. The party was held at Tracey’s other business, Housewerks. The building is a perfect place for a Halloween party – or any other party, for that matter. It’s a Victorian gasworks building and is filled with the most amazing items and artifacts. (This is an early picture, right after they bought the building.)
We didn’t have to do much to the interior of the building, except for adding some lights, some spooky skeletons, and lots of candles. For the food, we had loads of candy and snacks, including this huge cauldron of cheeze balls. The costumes were hilarious, ranging from the Chilean Miners, to a creepy clown that someone had put on his back. He’s actually facing the “miners” talking, but the clown face was looking out at the group. Here are a couple of other views of the space before the party started.
Joseph and the Baby Jesus with his miner’s goggles on. Some spiders hanging from the back door. The fireplace room, reflecting the main room. The 1940’s perm machine, all lit up and ready to go. One of the sinks, filled with glass chunks and fairy lights. All in all, it was a fun party and raised some funds for the Baltimore Architecture Foundation!
