Carrie Garner Gallery hosts “Prisoners of Love Monster Bash”

By Pegasus News wire

The art galleries of The Old Collin County Prison are hosting the 2007 Halloween event of the year, benefiting the Love Life Foundation. Be sure to plan to spend the evening with us. There is no better place to hang out on Halloween than the Prisoner’s of Love Monster Bash at the old Collin County prison, 115 S. Kentucky Street in downtown McKinney .

Costumes are preferred, of course, but all are welcome. Come howl at the moon, celebrate community and have an impressively good time, while raising money for at-risk children of Collin County.

The evening’s events will be highlighted with a live performance by The Maylee Thomas Band. Maylee is guaranteed to move your spirit and shake your soul as she entertains you in her high-energy style and her strong, “hauntingly” beautiful voice.

An auction featuring items by local merchants and regional artists will be the best trick-or-treat you’ll get all evening. One-of-a kind works of art and valuable gifts will fill up your goody bag before the night is over. Contests, games, and tequila tasting will keep your spirits high and the place jumping all night long.

Do you know the story of Ezel Stepp and some of the other infamous “guests” of the old Collin County prison? Learn about Mr. Stepp’s fateful walk into Collin County history. You may even met “Lovely Lily,” the resident ghost of 115 S. Kentucky Street , who makes her presence known on a daily basis.

Have a blast, raise money for charity and satisfy the thrill-seeker and fun-lover in you. Celebrate Halloween, 2007 at Prisoners of Love Monster Bash…if you dare.

Tickets are $25 at the door and $20 in advance. Please call to reserve your tickets today. For more information and to reserve your tickets in advance, please call Galleria d’Arte at 469-742-9509.
