There was still a bit of winter left in the air Friday night — and some of it drifted into the Parkside Lounge.
The Houston Street venue hosted a Surrealist Winter Ball, an evening of costumes, tarot readings, live painting and DJ sets timed to the eve of the spring equinox.
Organizers — presented by Midnight Flaneur in collaboration with The Committee — billed it as an immersive night of "light, sound, costume, and transformation." (Below left is the event producer, Simone McAlonen.)
There were also performances, including Mandy Mayhem, but we couldn't stay long enough to catch everything on the lineup.
The crowd mostly consisted of enthusiastic, creatively dressed attendees who appeared completely in tune with the theme.
