Where burlesque meets life drawing in Charm City!
Viola Van Wilde of Gilded Lily Burlesque will be posing for your illicit drawing pleasure…AND it’s our first one year anniversary! We’ve got some absolutely amazing prizes this time around from our sponsors Atomic Books, Artist & Craftsman Supply, and Baby Tattoo Books! And wait till you see the stuff! (We’ll post some tease photos tomorrow, so you don’t think we’re lying to ya. 🙂
Don’t forget, Gilded Lily Burlesque is performing Friday night! If you’ve come to just one of our sessions, the odds are pretty good someone from Gilded Lily posing. This is possibly the best burlesque show Alexis and I’ve seen in Baltimore (or anywhere else). It’s one thing to see Viola, Sable, Paco, Maria, Luna, Lena, or Lucille sit still for a sketchpad, it’s something else entirely to see their art.
Come join Baltimore’s premiere burlesque troupe, Gilded Lily Burlesque, on Friday May 22nd for The Nearly Naked Truth! It’s a nostalgic romp back to the days when men were men and dames were kittens. These lovely ladies (with the help of Paco Fish, outstanding news reporter) will help you navigate the slippery slopes of sex, drugs, plaid pants and communism.
But, don’t get too uptight daddio! After witnessing a spicy shimmy here and a saucy shake there, you’ll be happily sliding down that slope, too! So let Gilded Lily Burlesque reveal to you the Nearly Naked Truth- it’s the American thing to do!
TWO SHOWS! 7:30 and 10:30.
Tickets are $15 and will be available in advance. Watch this space for a link. THIS WILL SELL OUT!
Here’s the event page on Facebook too.
Hey folks, we know a lot of you either live in Mt. Vernon or spend a lot of time there, so we thought you might want a heads-up.
There have been a TON of assaults in the area over the last two months, all on Friday and Saturday nights, all within a few blocks of the Belvedere Hotel and sometimes right in front of it. They’re happening anywhere from 8 in the evening till three in the morning.
Apparently the assaults are originating from the underage crowd patronizing that new club in the basement of the Belvedere (the one with all the stabbings and shootings). Both men and women are being attacked in most of the cases by roving groups of underage kids . . . the motive doesn’t appear to be robbery, but instead to just beat every single tooth out of your head. All the people were jumped from behind before they knew the kids were there.
The rumormill says these attacks are gang initiations but that may just be hysteria.
So if you’re in the Belvedere Hotel / Brewer’s Art area on either of those nights, keep your eyes open.
Here’s a link if you want some dates and names. (Btw, the title says “Charles Village”, but the club is in Mt. Vernon and that’s where the assaults are taking place. The article doesn’t list all of them either, btw.)
