From Sunday's Austin American Statesman:Hair-raising gala On Saturday, Houston will pay homage to towering Texas coiffures during the sixth annual Hair Ball, a wild and wacky gala that benefits the Lawndale Art Center, and alternative art space for contemporary artists. This year's celebration of big hair centers around the them "Let Them Eat Cake," and 18th century "historique" hair tribute to the styles of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. Come see men dressed as cans of Aqua Net and women attempting to outdo one another's dos by taking their hair to new heights. Named one of America's best parties in 1995 by People magazine. For information, call (713) 528-5858. Tickets are $150. The gala is 8 p.m. to midnight. ... The party is at Two Houston Center, 909 Fannin St. Lawndale Art Center is at 4912 Main St., in the museum district.End of quote.I called and got some additional information, including a mention of period music to be played during the gala. I also got an URL for their site: http://www.neosoft.com/~lawndale/hair.htm (this is the one used to link "Hair Ball" in this message. Unfortunately, it seems to be last year's information.
