The Masquerade might be the most hyped-up Gooseberry dance yet! Between the success of the Valentine's fundraiser and the intrigue of Mr. Calderon-Boot's new anonymity charm, there's plenty to be excited for.

During dinner on Wednesday, sharp-eyed students might notice Ivy and Laurel slip out of dinner early to make preparations for their last-minute MASK CRAFTING EXTRAVAGANZA. Also during dinner, Ms. Lilywhite announces that duelling club has been cancelled. If you'd like to complain to her about this, tough. She's gone the second dinner ends, and doesn't put in an appearance at the crafting session.

As students exit dinner, they find the Atrium transformed into a crafting wonderland. The sofas and chairs have been pushed aside to make space for large, colorful tables full of crafting supplies. There's music playing, and the twins' eclectic and clashing taste in music has resulted in a playlist reminiscent of the Kramer/Morales birthday party mix. Ivy and Laurel greet everyone enthusiastically; they're happy to demonstrate mask-making techniques, but they're even happier just to set you loose on the crafting supplies and see what happens.

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN

• The mask making party will take place in the Atrium after dinner! Duelling club has been cancelled for the evening so you don't have to worry about being double-booked.


• Valentine's flowers were such a hit that Event Committee has provided all the mask-making materials for you! It's a straight-up craft store in here. All kinds of ribbon, trims, glitter, feathers, glue, markers, paper, fabric, and other embellishments are set up on the tables.


• If you're hurting for ideas or just want a second opinion, Ivy and Laurel are here to help! They'll be offering anyone who wants it advice on what shapes, colors, animals or themes might suit them best.


• Wand use is allowed within normal school rules, but using your hands is encouraged. After a freshman asks Sybilla Borgin how they accomplished a color changing charm, they get stuck for 20 minutes applying the charm to eager freshmen's masks.


• Mr. Calderon-Boot is here to apply the anonymity charm to your masks, but you can also track him down tomorrow or Friday.
  

» Crafting Tables: Several large tables have been set up around the Atrium, and each is brimming with crafting supplies. There are no chairs and supplies are divided by color to encourage people to mingle while they craft.

» Consult the Twins: The Templetons are artistic and theatrical geniuses and they're here to tell you what kind of mask you'd look best in.

» Clean-Up: Set-up occurred during dinner, but if anyone wants to stay late to lend a hand in the clean-up process it would be much appreciated ❤
