FAQs


Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
This event is a professional design event, not geared towards children. Students are welcome. The minimum legal drinking age is 21. Use your best judgement. Hire a babysitter for the night. Bring your ID just in case. We’ll call you an Uber if you need it. Have fun

What should I wear?
Attire is anything fun for an evening event. Not too fancy, not too casual, but whatever you are comfortable in. Don’t forget your dancing shoes! 

What can I do to prevent the spread of COVID-19?
It is becoming increasingly clear that the best way to enjoy socializing during this pandemic is to do so outdoors.  Although, there are certain safe practices to keep in mind.  Please respect others’ personal space, maintaining a minimum of 6′ social distance, especially while in the presence of people you don’t know, or not in usual contact with.  Otherwise, all unvaccinated parties are encouraged to “mask-up”.  Please do not touch any other guests at the Park. Use extreme caution when sharing food, drink, cigarettes, etc.  In addition, please regularly utilize the provided hand washing/sanitizer stations.
