Houston Center for Contemporary Craft (HCCC) hosts Martini Madness! Bossa Nova Bash, its seventh annual cocktail fundraiser featuring artisan glasses, bottomless Deep Eddy Vodka martinis, sizzling snacks by Green House Catering, a big-board auction, and photo-booth fun with Photobomb. This year, the mid-century-themed party goes Brazilian, with live bossa nova and samba by Trio Fórte. At the beginning of the evening, guests select an artisan martini glass of their choice to use and take home. Guests choose from an incredible array of glasses—all of which are handmade in a variety of styles and materials by local and national craft artists. Mid-century cocktail attire (“Mad Men”-style fashions inspired by the ‘50s and ‘60s) is suggested for this fun, swanky soiree. All proceeds benefit HCCC.
