July 23rd, 2011 - PDP at The Weird West Saloon!
" Following the tremendous success of the Clockwork Carnival, The Artifice Club is pleased to announce its Summer event, The Weird West Saloon, to be held Saturday July 23, 2011 at the Solarium in Oakhurst – a neighborhood of Decatur, Georgia. Ride in dressed as your favorite cowboy, outlaw, gambler, saloon girl or whatever inspires the imagination. We have gotten all fancy this time with indoor plumbing and icebox air. For those who want to get started early, come out to the Friday Night Roundup, July 22nd, starting in the Oakhurst Square at 8 p.m. With plenty of fine eateries and saloons to partake of, come out and mix and mingle with friends old and new, and meet the locals.
The Weird West Saloon, as the name implies, takes inspiration from the speculative fiction of the American West and transforms it into a Steampunk wonderland, compliments of Penny Dreadful Productions. The festivities begin at 4 p.m. when the Trading Post Market opens for business. Artists, photographers, fabricators and other vendors will offer their wares in a setting reminiscent of an old-time general store. Admission to the Trading Post is free to the public.
At 7 p.m., the doors open for ticketholders. The evening's main attraction features the swinging hot jazz sounds of the local musical sensation, Blair Crimmins and the Hookers, sure to send any barroom regular’s toes tapping to the Dixieland beat. Talloolah Love and Her Saloon Girls follow with a burlesque performance sure to please the assembled outlaws, gamblers and gold miners. The Saloon's sheriff, the incomparable MC and comedienne Sabrina Pandora, is sure to keep the peace for the night as the evening is rounded out by Doctor Q and DJ Swivel spinning an eclectic mix that will set the ladies and their gentlemen admirers to dancing. The doors close at midnight, but the party doesn't stop – it just moves next door to McGowan's Oakhurst Pub, serving the finest craft beers and tastiest pub grub in the area.
Throughout the night, patrons may participate in a charity casino featuring blackjack, Texas Hold 'Em and roulette. In addition, those not interested in gambling can take part in a charity “Maverick Shootout” Quick Draw tournament. Prizes will be awarded for both events, and proceeds benefit Dream Power Therapeutic Equestrian Center, sponsored byVONschmalhausen. "

Dreadful will be taking their dedication and enthusiasm for this unique sub-culture to a whole new and
exciting level by opening the world's first Steampunk store and studio: The Boiler Room.
As part of the revitalization of Duluth's town square, PDP has worked with the city leadership to
renovate an abandoned restaurant space into an energizing space for artistic endeavors and celebration.
Conveniently located at 3067-B Main Street, Duluth, GA, it adds a new dimension to the the retail
landscape of Gwinnett County and Metro Atlanta. To celebrate the official launch of the new store and
workspace, The Boiler Room will host a full day celebration on Saturday, May 21.

Steampunk artists and artisans. Along with antiques, the store offers a diverse array of handcrafted
items, personal accessories, decorations, and art works. The Boiler Room is more than just a store, as
work space is available for fabricators and costumers to practice their craft and learn from experts.

Activities will proceed through the day and evening activities will include a cocktail party for friends
and supporters of the Boiler Room.
Steampunk has its roots in the alternate history literary genre, but has expanded beyond that into a
blooming sub-culture that mixes Victorian fashion and sensibilities with fantastic, imaginary
technologies. Drawing on inspiration from Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, the contemporary Steampunk
movement is growing in popularity.
Under the inspirational leadership of founders Matt Silva and Erin Bushko, Penny Dreadful Productions has contributed to the aesthetic of Steampunk. PDP has created a wide variety of steampunk costumes including original one-of-a-kind designs and notable Steampunk version of popular characters including a Steampunk ensemble of The Wizard of Oz, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Steampunk Iron Man, and Steampunk Boba Fett. PDP craftsmanship has been seen on TV and in films including The Walking Dead, Ben10- Alien Swarm, The Candy Shop, Heartless, and the recent Blood on My Name.
