Okay, the Factory is THE party of the year at the Contemporary. Simply said: you have to be there.  I just picked up my super-styling dress from Masula (Marcia, don’t you dare sell another one like it), and you should head down there for an outfit – unless of course, you truly want to channel Warhol with a dress made of aluminum foil (wouldn’t that hurt?).

If you want to get your art groove on TONIGHT (read: now) then head to Laumeier’s annual Art Fair.  Tonight is the Laumeier/ArtLink/Alive Magazine Art of the Vine tasting, where you get to. . .yes, taste wine, amongst the beauty of St. Louis County nature and beautiful sculpture.
