FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2013 - OPENING NIGHT
After an incredibly successful inaugural year in 2012, VALT is ready to wow audiences again with spectacular fashion collections, powerful music, and moving art.
Our theme is broken into three parts for our three consecutive nights - Utopia, Dystopia and Techtopia - three potential futures.
NIGHT 1 ~ UTOPIA
Utopia is the ideal future for many, a world in which humankind lives without toil or discomfort, with little to no effort being required for survival. A sweet and hopeful future that was the dream of the optimistic 50's, 60's, and early 70's.
