South magazine celebrated its 6th anniversary at the Jepson Center for the Arts Saturday night with a release party for its Feb/Mar issue featuring the arts. The city’s coolest crowd converged at the event and three levels of the museum were filled with hundreds of guests who were treated to dance performances, sketches and a fashion exhibit by Savannah Arts Academy students. The black tie affair brought out Savannah’s finest including platinum-selling country star Billy Currington and Project Runway All Star April Johnston. Dramatic red lighting illuminated the soaring marble walls and highlighted dancers posed on pedestals dressed in red and black tutus. Savannah Arts Academy award-winning designer Grant Flinn’s gown made entirely from recycled material was modeled by Carolynn Heebner. Guests enjoyed cuisine by Leoci’s, a flower sculpture of South’s mascot Mongo crafted by Savannah’s premier florist John Davis, and lively music courtesy First City Events’ most wanted dj Jeff Karr. Of course South had a fleet of photographers there to capture the event, so make sure to check out the many galleries!
