Precluding the Anniversary Party is a special Dances of Vice brunch event held on August 9th at the Montauk Club, a lavish private Victorian clubhouse in Park Slope.

At this special reception, a feast for the palate is accompanied with a rare audible and visual banquet presented by gothic cabaret sensation VOLTAIRE, steampunk inspired fashion displays from innovative artist-designer KRISTIN COSTA and extraordinary steampunk designer BERIT NYC, a brand new collection of wearable oddities and curiosities from PUREVILE! and impossible artifacts inspired by Victorian inventions by metalsmith and sculptor ERIN COLLEEN WILLIAMS, which reflect today’s obsessions and cultural curiosities.

RSVP for this event has ended and all seats have been taken. This is a private event and venue; walk-ins will not be admitted into the club.
