The Detroit Wig Out is an unrestrained, one-night party where you can sport a new look, an alternative guise, or simply enjoy good live music and fun in the name of wiggery.

When: Saturday, April 30, 2011; Doors Open 8:30 PM

Why: To benefit the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD) and a free public workshop tied to the upcoming Soul Ceramic Manufacturing Corporation exhibit by Chicago-based sculptor and performance artist Theaster Gates.

Entertainment: FAWN, The Blue Squares, The Kickstand Band, Royale, DJ Adam Stanfel and the Glam & Spandex Wig Walk with amazing clothing and wig fashions.

Emcees: “Creepy” Clyde Brown, host of Spooky Talk and actor/entertainer Emily Rose.
