Michael Stipe, Heather Graham, Rosario Dawson Co-Hosted w/ Shepard Fairey
Manifest Hope: DC zenithed with a sensational party on it’s final night, Monday. On the eve of the presidential inauguration, the artists and volunteers that led the charge of Barack Obama’s triumphant grassroots campaign celebrated with a star-studded event that rivaled many of the inaugural balls the following night. With live performances by Santo Gold, Adam Freeland, DJ Trouble Maker, Grammy winning artists: De La Soul, Moby, and of course DJ Diabetic himself (Shepard Fairey); it was no wonder the venue was packed to the brim and rockin’ deep into the early hours with AM.
'Drink up, be merry! It's a celebration Bitches!' - Rick James
The party was easily the hottest ticket D.C. Monday night as many Hollywood regulars came to congratulate/celebrate with Shepard for his crucial work on the historic campaign. Celebs such as Michael Stipe, Heather Graham, Rosario Dawson, Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Grenier, Casey Affleck, Tim Robbins, Olivia Wilde, and Jeffery Wright came out to celebrate the success of the 3 day pop-up gallery.
See all the pictures and some surprises after the jump!
