BYOBeard !

Saturday, June 22. 6 pm -12 am
Presented by Urban Skep

Back in February Austin-area artists were challenged to create work that incorporates facial hair somehow. On June 22, over 50 artists will exhibit their own personal twists on the beard theme. See their clever and creative work yourself, and cast your vote for People’s Choice award. See the facebook event here.

Arrive early and give yourself enough time to browse paper mustaches and beard earrings at the craft booth. Drink beer. Proudly don your own beard, natural or otherwise.

Meet local talent including Scott Rolfe, Jennifer Balkan, Sam Hurt, Dave Mead, and Magna Sayeg. Mingle with members of Austin Craft Riot, Austin Facial Hair Club, and Rocksalt Magazine. Enjoy the mixin’s of DJ Freedom Rock, DJ Dugan, and special guests.

Doors open at 6pm. Early birds get free treats. Party ends at midnight, with awards announcements sometime in between.

Oh, and watch this awesome video about the event!

Hooray!
