Last Wednesday the Brooklyn Museum hosted its annual Brooklyn Artists Ball, honoring artists Vik Muniz, Wangechi Mutu and Roxie Paine as well as showcasing the work of Brooklyn artists that decorated the 16 tables of the dinner party. The price for getting in one of these tables was at least $1,000, and so we wanted to make sure to give you a glimpse of what happened at this fancy dinner party and who wear what. Let’s take a look, shall we?

For a night where all were dressed at their best,  the Brooklyn Museum celebrated the up and coming artists of Brooklyn.  And in its subliminal halls an ample supply of alcohol fueled a crazy party. Just like Cinderella, the Brooklyn Museum turned into something different for one night. But every Cinderella story always ends at midnight. The party ended with people walking out of the museum still dancing, still socializing, still smiling and laughing.
