DMA Late Night - Gaultier Style
Last Friday evening the Dallas Museum of Art hosted their monthly Friday Late Night (3rd Friday of the Month, open til midnight). It was so incredibly exciting to see thousands (literally thousands) of people of ALL ages walking up and down the corridors, enjoying the music, food, exhibits and all the fun and interesting activities the DMA has put together. I was so impressed! With the Gaultier exhibit closing in a few weeks there were tons of women dressed up in the most fabulous avante-garde outfits...so fun to see so many people expressing themselves this way. Above is a picture I captured of a girl who had Diet Coke cans as rollers. Too fun!
Below is a lovely quote projected in light on a small entrance that I found so simple, beautiful and appropriate for the evening.
