Get Spooky: Batcave Day this Saturday at VAIN

Wednesday, October 27th, 2010

Must be the season of the witch… and the bat: this Saturday, Oct 30th at VAIN downtown we’re celebrating Batcave Day, our annual tribute to the darker side of art + fashion and the spookiest time of year.

But this isn’t a standard Batcave Day, dear VAIN Blog readers + trick-or-treaters. This year we’ve got a little something up our sleeves (our long black sleeves, or course) for everyone:

  • Get 25% off all purchases all day long. Good towards jewelry, art, hair products, stationery, wigs, you name it.*
  • Going to a Halloween party? Stop by on your way and snap your picture at the VAIN Mirror digital photobooth for your chance to win a $100 VAIN Gift Certificate. Best picture/costume wins!
  • Join us from 3:00 – 7:00pm as we unveil “Darker Than Thou,” a Batcave-themed art show featuring works by Rawkson, Lindey Ivey, Fable and Fury, R Land, and Michael O’Driscoll, with spooky sounds by VAIN’s own Batcave Day overlord, DJ Eli Blu.
  • Candy for everyone. ‘Nuff said.
  • So there you have it. A day filled with art, darkness, and discounts. Not to mention that the VAIN staff tends to get gothed to the nines for Batcave Day, which itself is something to behold. We’ve already started practicing.

    See you Saturday,
