It was wonderful working with Daniel’s family for his out of this world, outer space Bar Mitzvah party at Rock Creek Mansion in Bethesda, Maryland. The venue was the perfect backdrop for a glowing night of Israeli dancing, more dancing, games and out of this world fun. Daniel loves science and outer space, but didn’t want it to feel too …
Another big year for Pop Color Events is in the books! It’s been a doozy! Business is booming and I’m even more excited for 2018, 2019 and beyond!
