DIVA MN's CLUB DIVA, its 17th annual fundraiser for AIDS/HIV programs. Guests were wowed by local and national entertainment along with a flashy, fast-paced designer fashion show.

Of special note are the DIVA MN Club Kids, 10 twenty to thirty-something activists making positive impacts in the community, and the creative works of Joel Sass, a local theater director and set designer who managed CLUB DIVA’s set design and entertainment.
