GaYBOR White Party 5-27-2012

Our camera broke just as the party started.  Very sad!!!

    ‘Annual White Party’ at Honey Pot
        Beautiful white linen outfits, flowing white sheers from the rafters, an area cascade of white blocks symbolizing ruins set a pace to the imaginary. Local set designer, Mathieu Stonach did it again transforming a large club into an intimate lofty white cloud dimension. White was the motif and the record crowd expounded on the theme of the annual social event. The HP bartenders, doormen and staff all dressed in white perpetuated the party even more. Owners, Stephen Moss and Ernie Webb sparkled in the festive White Party benefit scene for the GaYBOR District.
        To the attendees surprises came fire eating contortionists, stilt walkers, jugglers,and magicians adding an exciting carnival atmosphere to the already magic. The dancers weren’t bad either!!!
