The Annual Skaia Ball of 2014

@theannualskaiaball / theannualskaiaball.tumblr.com

[Banner and logo art are by the talented Hilary! Her beautiful artwork deserves full-view glory, so click here to see the banner even closer.] Welcome to the tumblr hub for The Skaia Ball of 2014. This year we present to you our formal cosplay ball with a theme of classic art deco Hollywood. Join us on June 29th, 2014 at 2:00pm for food, music, and fun, as we celebrate a webcomic that has brought together some of the most creative and passionate minds of our Internet generation: Homestuck. Please be sure to visit our website under the "Navigation" tab above for more information about how you can purchase tickets, what the dress code is, where the ball will be held, and more!

Are you guys still going to have it in 2015? My friends and I would LOVE to attend and if you don't have then we might have to make one of our own and we're kinda broke.

Unfortunately there are no more plans to continue with the Skaia Ball. Homestuck is no longer a fandom that would solely fund this kind of event. We are looking into continuing the ball in the future with a more generic and all-fandom inclusivity. We are deeply saddened to have to end the fun, but there are simply not enough active, proud, devoted fans necessary to make this a reality.

Hey are you guys doing the Skaia Ball this year? When I go to your website it says the Skaia Ball of 2014 so..

We're still not entirely sure. Attendance was so low last year that we are considering partnering with another existing group, or something similar.

I noticed there was a photographer or two at the ball and I was wondering if any of those pictures would be uploaded any time soon or at all? Sorry to bother you. Cal and I just wanted to see how our group picture outside turned out.

OH ABSOLUTELY.

We haven't heard back from him yet. He had a doctor's appointment yesterday and said he'd get in touch with me when he uploaded all the pictures, and once that's done you'll surely see them everywhere. :P

hello! i was wondering if a hat would be okay at the ball? or would that be too casual?

It really depends! I wouldn't wear a baseball cap or a beanie, but I think most other hats would be okay. "Dressy" hats. (Spades Slick, Sn0wman, etc.)

Although I know spotify is the initial music source for the ball, can we also use bandcamp for some possibly? I mean a lot of our fandom's music is on there

Not a whole lot of "dance" music is there, but you're welcome to request it. I have some stuff downloaded/purchased.

I'm a little curious about the volunteers meeting that was supposed to happen yesterday. Is that going to happen at a different time today? Or is that not happening we just show up on the day of the ball?

You were the only one who made themselves available on Skype. We received an e-mail from one volunteer who explained that they couldn't make it. I'll try to contact volunteers individually via e-mail but please just show up with your signed contract.
