UNTITLED ARTISTS GROUP : NEWS: Naked Carnivale Registration open! And our venue is....

Hello everyone,

We have a venue for the Naked Carnivale!

We are excited and pleased to announce that Diamond Sound Studios will be hosting our fall show.
Thanks to Mar for leading us to this awesome space and Marty and Leilani for heading up our venue search!

Diamond Sound Studios is a new rehearsal complex of music and artist studios located in Metro Center. It also houses a large space where we will hold the Naked Carnivale show!

Registration is now open for the fall show. You can visit the Naked Carnivale artist page to get the link and for more info. We are doing a small works table again for participating artists, which was super successful at the last show.

COSTUMES / INSPIRATION

While there is no required theme for artwork for any Untitled show, we do have unique titles. We think the title for the fall show is quite fun and we're encouraging you to have fun with it too.

We are going to have a costume contest at the show and encourage everyone to dress in their version of carnival and masquerade gear.
Anything and everything from old sideshow carny to brazilian carnival styles. Go crazy!

Ever wanted to be a sideshow freak? A ringmaster? A unicyclist? A circus animal? A muscle man? A stilt walker?
A juggler?
Here's your chance!

We've put together some links for you on the costume page of our site. This will be developed further in the next few weeks and we appreciate any feedback or link suggestions.
