It provided an excellent reason for me to continue exploring mask making. The theme I went with for the 2017 event came from my very own muse, who suggested that we could go as the Owl and the Pussycat, but with a steampunk twist.

It is an evening of costumes, artist sideshows, dance performances, and other masqueradey fun. I’ve been the last few years and it has been a great excuse to try my hand at making masks.
