Buy Local Moscow Sponsors Mardi Gras Masquerade Ball







Buy Local Moscow is sponsoring a Masquerade Ball for the Moscow Mardi Gras at the 1912 Center on Saturday, March 7, from 8pm to midnight. This community dance is the only Moscow Mardi Gras party to be celebrated at a smoke-free venue this year. 

RidgeRunner, a rocking acoustic bluegrass band, will provide the live music for dancing. RidgeRunner, a longtime local favorite, includes bandmembers who now live all across Idaho, including Boise, McCall and Deary.

The dance focuses on the theme: Dress Up to Get Down. Flamboyant and colorful apparel, as well as wearing masks, is suggested. 

Masks may be purchased at the dance from First Book, which is a children's literacy program selling masks as a fundraiser. First Book will also be offering a coat check service there. Proceeds from the dance will go to the Moscow Mardi Gras for the benefit of local youth organizations.

Alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase at the dance. Mix will be providing a martini bar and Mikeys will offer beer and wine. 

Tickets cost $5 in advance (from BookPeople, Mikey's Gyros, Howard Hughes Video, and Safari Pearl) and $7 at the door. The $12 Moscow Mardi Gras ticket will also be accepted at the door. Admission to the event is open only to those 21 or older.

The mission of Buy Local Moscow is to showcase and to support the locally-owned independent businesses of the community. Moscow continues to be a vibrant community because these businesses reinvest their profits locally, donate consistently to local programs, maintain diverse product choices, and strengthen Moscow's unique character.
