The evening will be artfully hosted by the dynamic Chad Wilderness, joined by the charming barista, AJ, who takes on the role of co-host. An ensemble of local models will strut their stuff to the electrifying rock melodies of guitar virtuoso El Hub, complemented by the rhythmic prowess of Danni Iosello on drums.
In an exciting enhancement, lighting effects for this year’s show will be brought to life by Johnny Crash, renowned for his captivating sculptural visuals showcased at the iconic Burning Man event.
Underlining the essence of local pride, the event’s designers and models all hail from Madison County. Their innovative creations will not only demonstrate the imagination that thrives within the community but also highlight the remarkable talents present in the region.
