For some reason, 2009 brought me a huge gift of Jim Conway. He has been so generous with his time and passion for my cupcake whims. A true ninja, he likes to stay behind the camera, but mom snapped this shot and it is good to see him represented on the blog.
Just for our portion of the evening, it took a huge crew of volunteers to hold it all together. Many were IronCupcake competitors of the past, some were fans. It would not have been complete with my biggest supporters, Bob and Jeff and my dear friend Heidi.
Oh yeah, we can not forget that Andy Warhol was on hand to lend his pop culture flair to this awesome night.
Keeping in the theme of A VERY VELVET HOLIDAY, the museam café provided tons of delicious "Velvet"ta Mac and Cheese!
A fun part of every MAM AfterDark event is the DIY stations. On this night visitors could go home with handmade cupcake pins, velvet paintings and snow globes!
The Exotics were on hand for live tunes, as well as the guys from Radio Milwaukee!
It was so much fun, Santa (aka Kendall Polster) and Mrs. Claus (aka Erica) were there. And, if you click on the photo above, you can even see Santa cut a rug!
We are still waiting on final numbers, but as you can see, it was a hugely successful night. Next blog post, a summary of the winners. You won't want to miss that!
