Costumes


Costume Art

For a number of years, Haloween turned into our own Burning Man-style event. It all started with the first costumes we put together for the Headland's Center for the Arts 'Mystery Ball' a number of years ago. For some unknown reason, there was a (self inflicted) compulsion to upstage the previous year's costume for this event. This compulsion (before we burned out) is documented.
