DVF and Ryan McNamara pair on POSE

Visitors can don a DVF dress and POSE for a custom pattern after a 10-minute hair and makeup session. Passersby walk a green screen hallway and transform into runway stars in LOOKS or walk the red carpet escorted by Calvin Klein models in A STAR IS BORN. The adventurous can DANCE their way to a free cookie or knock over cups of paint for a chance at winning a piece of the completed artwork in SPLATTER. FIFTEEN MINUTES is all it takes for artist Liz Marcus to complete a personalized caricature. CROSSOVER affords an opportunity to break gender boundaries with COS bar transforming gender with makeup and other embellishments.
