7PM – Late
Artemis Whiskey Bar | 560 Johnson St #27
An out-of-this-world night of art, music & fun hosted by Artemis, the space-themed whisky bar! All celestial bodies welcome!
This is a fundraiser for the Victoria Arts Council. The proceeds will help us continue the great work we’ve done for over 50 years. This party will provide all the fun you’ve come to expect from us. There will be an art sale, raffle, and Mystery Bags to ensure you don’t go home empty-handed! Stellar entertainment will be followed by a DJ and dancing!
Grab some friends and join us for an out of this world event!
Come as you are, or try on your best space drags!
Some looks to consider: Astronauts, Asteroids, Aliens, Black Holes, Mid-Century Atomic Realness, Comets, The Jetsons, Mork & Mindy, Meteorites, Milky Way, Stars, and of course Space Junk.
Looks to avoid: anything boring.
