The Greenwich Village Frolic

Art students let their imaginations run riot for two weeks while they spent
all their spare time in working on posters for the cabaret given at ‘The
Ambassador” by the Vancouver branch of the Women’s Press Club. A medal
was offered for the best work. Of the thirty-two entries, Ellen Moore’s poster
was chosen as the best. One of the two posters submitted by Vito Cianci was
so original that a second prize was decided on. Mr. Butterfield miade the
presentation.

The cabaret was one of the gayest parties of the season. The original
lighting, unique decorations and lively music created a distinctly Bohemian at-
mosphere. This effect was enhanced by the presence of a number of Art students
dressed in their colourful smocks. Later in the evening, novelties in the form
of brilliant bouncing balloons, trailing serpentine and noisy crickets added to the
general gaiety and uproar of the affair. Several times between the dances
the students were the cause of a mild sensation when they gave civilized
renderings of the snake dance.

The Art students will always consider the Greenwich Village Frolic one of
the events of the year, for it was at this affair the school made its first public’
appearance.

To Remind You !

The Editor suggests that everyone keep in mind, during the holidays, the
Beaux Arts’ Ball, which will be given next term. We hope that every effort
will be made to have the costumes as original as possible, and we shall be very
grateful for ideas on decorations, favors, ete.
