The Mad Men Cocktail Party

A few weeks ago on a Friday night, as the winter sun dropped into the horizon, I headed over to RED the Agency for a cocktail party. RED’s offices, housed in renovated condos on several floors of a building on the north side of Edmonton, is worthy of an Officeland feature (if only for its collection of overstuffed baroque armchairs that populate the space).

This party, however, was focused mainly on booze (gimlets) and television and spending a couple hours in vintage clothing pretending we were all characters in the TV show Madmen.

Here are some photos of the event. (Thanks to photographer Dale Spychka.) Send along your photos and ideas for great work parties and we’ll share them on the blog.
