New Year’s 2012 Vintage Prom @ NVA

The Mayan calendar predicts the end of the world in 2012, but that seemed like the last thing on the minds of those celebrating at the 2012 Vintage Prom at New Village Arts Theatre’s New Year’s Celebration.

The lobby of New Village Arts Theatre was transformed by newly appointed event coordinator and Foundry manager Jenna Carlson. Guests dressed in vintage attire (era of their choice) parted the shiny golden plastic strips that hung along the perimeter windows and entered the throw back celebration.

Hap’s Bar animated with toasts. Complimentary photos by KomPhotos Imagery captured each guest in vintage prom poses. A long table laden with snacks and treats was frequented throughout the night and the theatre stage lured with the sounds of an old school dance party.


The night’s focus later shifted from the bar, food and photo setup to the theatre stage where guests danced to vintage and contemporary tunes amongst a sea of balloons. An animated backdrop counted down the year culminating in an explosion of confetti and optimism.

2012 holds high hopes and possibilities though the Mayan’s think otherwise. The party at the New Village Arts Theatre ignored the Mayan predictions and not only celebrated the past… but welcomed whatever the future has to offer.
