To kick off Diabetes Awareness Month and raise money for the American Diabetes Association, Studio Bellagio, 105 E. Speedway, is hosting a masquerade fashion show charity gala from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday.
The evening includes entertainment, food, fashion and beauty, with all vendors — which, incidentally, have all been touched by diabetes — donating part of their proceeds to the ADA.
Here are the details and a schedule of the events:
5 to 9 p.m.: Local vendors will be selling jewelry, clothing, cosmetics, tattooing, hair and nail products and food, and donating a percentage of proceeds to the American Diabetes Association.
Ongoing raffles will take place throughout the evening. One hundred percent of raffle monies will be given to the ADA.
6 p.m.: Models made up by Studio Bellagio and dressed by local artists will strut their stuff on the runway during a fashion show.
