ONGOING ACTIVITIES: 
Get crafty like it’s 1999! Bring your own artwork or create an offering at our craft station to add to a Prince Celebration Shrine.

Marvel at the students and faculty from Juxtaposition Arts, some of the city’s most talented designers, as they create drawings in the moment to capture the spirit of the event.

Stop by the purple hair station, courtesy of Curl Power Salon, to be sure “you got the look” -- a Prince-inspired purple do. 

Let’s go crazy. Sip cocktails and munch on some of Prince’s favorite snacks throughout the night.
