Every year Twist re-invests a great deal of their profits into re-doing the club. One year it meant installing an outrageously expensive copper ceiling over the first, front bar and this year painting the upstairs dance bar. The paintings were copies found in a Tibetan cave not too long ago and lends quite an exotic taste to a room that is know for other things than that.

I particularly loved the uneven borders, probably just like the originals.

The lounge and VIP area had a more POP look.

And here was a party Carl Van Vechten would probably been at.

The new art, the fresh smell of paint, and the new carpeting signaled the start of a new year for Twist. And if June is Anniversary Party, Turnabout Party can only be a month or so away.

Off now to the surprise party for Dr. Brad's fiance, Dr. Bruce, where the ring and question will be popped. My date: Brad's son, who was supposed to be a surprise but spent all afternoon drinking with us.
