Stella Artois Masquerade Ball


I created this event because Indianapolis had few New Year's events that were affordable and "out of the ordinary." I wanted to do something that would allow people to enjoy the beauty of downtown Indianapolis - an event that people could bring their out-of-town friends to Indy for.
My hope was to tie the event to a nonprofit cause. I saw an article in the Indy Star about a neighborhood that had united to hold a garage sale to help with the medical expenses of a toddler who had gone through a liver transplant. Her name was Lauren Seiders and her smile was angelic. I contacted the family and was in awe of their strength, beauty, love...they are truly a magical family! You can learn more about Lauren's story here. If you are interested in donating to Lauren's medical expenses, click here. Lauren is the inspiration for this Ball -- she has taught that no matter what life throws at you, continue to laugh, love and appreciate every day!
