Wednesday, December 31st - New Year's Eve!

Galapagos Art Space
and
Shanghai Mermaid present

~ a very, very sexy New Years Eve ~

"New Years Eve Pick ... Ring in the New Year at this sexy bash."
- Time Out NY

"This is how everyone should spend their New Year's."
- NY Press

Join us on New Year's Eve as we partner with Shanghai Mermaid - and pull back the curtain on a dark and wonderful night of cabaret and performance.

Years ago we had a thought; if we had to work on New Year's Eve then we were going to make damn sure we made the party that we'd absolutely die to go to if we weren't in fact working. Well, we did it.

Think of the 1920-30's Jazz Age speakeasies of Paris, Shanghai, and Weimar, Berlin. The world was bright, new, wondrous. Prosperity seemed to stretch out forever. The infamous parties brought out the most scandalous natures in the most well-mannered people, ahem.

So dust off your fedoras, feather boas, sequined gowns, flapper dresses, and oriental attire... and be warned that your evening best might get a little ruffled, but we'll be sure to ruffle your evening best in just the right places.

A limited amount of advance tickets can be purchased here. Tickets available on the eve of 2008, and when we turn it up a notch after midnight - in 2009!
