Clockwork Carnival - April 16th (Atlanta GA)
FB Event Link is HERE.
Step right up boys and girls to the most crazed collection of costumed chicanery and carnal cabaret delights! That’s right, ladies, gents, rubes, and roustabouts, the Artifice Club proudly presents the Clockwork Carnival!
Prior to the main event, the Vendor's Market Caravan opens at 4pm and is completely free to attend. Come feast your eyes and open your wallets for an array of peddlers, merchants, and artists displaying their wares at this bizarre bazaar. Stare in wonder at the collection of mechanical wonders, as the tinkers, inventors, and craftsmen display their devices for chance to win the Carnival Contraption Contest grand prize. Costumed characters may wish to have their photos taken by Appleblossom Photography or Dim Horizon Studio while they await the spectacular main event, starting at 7pm.
The Main Event: Listen to the big top sound of the Opa Czars as the Imperial Opa are on hand to work their circus arts. Additionally, all the way from Carrboro, North Carolina, we present the guest DJ brilliance of the Davenport Sisters of the Clockwork Cabaret radio show! Local DJ and host Doctor Q will be on hand to spin and conduct the three ring event.
Be amazed at the explosions of flaming fiery frenzy, as most of our amazing acts will spin, dance, whip, and twirl dangerous dancing flames of dazzling delight! With guests Pyro Salto from Birmingham Alabama, and featuring the darling dames of open flames, the Hot Toddies Flaming Cabaret!
Marvel at the delicious local starling, Sadie Hawkins and laugh till your guts burst at the Moldavian comedic troupe, the Thimblerig Circus!
UPDATE! Project Rhapsody to be making their on stage debut at the show!
ALL this for the paltry cost of $15 at the door, or just $10 if dressed in your circus or steampunk best, and you are guaranteed to leave impressed! Special VIP seating is available with advance purchase.
UPDATE! We'd like to note that parking will be attended to for the low cost of just $2. Additionally, we will have beer donated by Asahi and wine for paltry donation to the cause. The Good Food Truck will also be on hand to see to your ecclectic eating needs. All this means is that you should plan ahead and bring cash, as there is no ATM on site.
A portion of the proceeds will fund the Arts2People project of Asheville, the chosen charity of the Americana Sideshow and Burlesque Festival.
UPDATE! We've also been sponsored by The Eyedrum Art Orginization. Kudos to them and their support!
The Goat Farm is located at 1200 Foster Street SW, Atlanta GA.
