“Who doesn’t think about the vibrant colors and disco flair when we think of the era of the ‘70s?” said Jewel Ball chairwoman Mio Hood. “At this year’s ... Jewel Ball, we want you to feel the vibes of the ‘70s through playful daisies, lava lamps, nostalgia of VW buses, old record albums and shimmering disco balls. It is sure to be a groovy evening that will take you down memory lane at any age.”
