Did you catch the buzz after last year's groundbreaking FLAUNT: Fashion Under the Bridge event? Last year's fundraiser, which rocked over 300 people with edgy fashion, art and entertainment, was named "Best New Event" by the Gazette and "Best Use of an Unconventional Space" by The Independent. This year, FLAUNT will again raise the bar for Springs' events. This benefit raises funds for the dynamic organization FutureSelf: Youth Discovering Success Through Art. This year's "cirque" theme will combine music and dance performances in collaboration with Idoru's high energy, progressive fashion show - more like theatre, less like a boring fundraiser! There will be food, beer and wine, and a sculpture garden including art from the youth participating in FutureSelf. The fun will continue into the night with a private V.I.P. after-party at a hip, downtown Colorado Springs nightclub. Ticket prices are $30 for General Admission and $60 for a VIP pass. Tickets will be available at Idoru (218 N. Tejon, Ste. 100), at two Toni and Guy locations (750 Citadel Dr E # 2292 & 1710 Briargate Blvd #143), and at www.flauntfashionunderthebridge.com This year's sponsors include Samuel Adams, Toni and Guy Salon, American National Bank, The Gazette, Manitou Arts Theater, Sonterra Grill, & Nosh. FutureSelf provides under-served, low-income youth ages 12 - 19 in the Pikes Peak region with arts-based workshops, exhibition, and performance opportunities. Young people experience connectedness, self-expression and success, and this results in increased self-efficacy, improved academic performance and hope for the future.
