Join us for a benefit gala inspired by Baudelaire’s seminal work reflecting the inseparable nature of beauty and corruption. With expertly crafted cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, savor the fleeting joys of life in the company of kindred spirits at Brooklyn, New York’s historic Gothic Revival Church of the Ascension. Our headline performer Madame Le Pustra—featured artist on TV’s Babylon Berlin—will bring a touch of Berlin cabaret, and dance music will be provided by DJ Psychopompos. Don your decadent best or a thematic costume—think Marchesa Luisa Casati, Alexander McQueen or Selkie, deadly flowers, the Garden of Eden, occult princesses, Edward Gorey’s Evil Garden—and be eligible for prizes, and don’t forget to memorialize your costume in our special floral photo-booth!
