Ce Soir Noir

Post by kgcayenne »

This is the alternate to Dinner en Blanc.

The last thing anyone would expect from the organizers of East Vancouver’s Ce Soir Noir would be praise for the massive gathering of fanciness that is Diner en Blanc. Heck, the now-annual dress-in-black event came about as a direct and biting response to the all-white phenomenon when it took over Crab Park last summer. All are welcome to attend for free and the “rules” are: dress in black, bring your own food and also bring some non-perishables to give to the food bank, clean up yer trash and basically be excellent to each other. It was launched by artists Graeme Berglund and George Vergette last year as a sort of anti-Diner en Blanc and attracted a whopping 1,500 attendees.

I like it! That whole Dinner En Blanc strikes me as sooooo pretentious.

Sounds like a great idea.

Dinner en Blanc is a wonderful gathering.

I like both concepts...something for everyone!
