Saturday, February 10 marked the 2018 installment of the Art of Illusion, a fabulous fundraiser for various organizations which is organizer every year by Roger Wells of Attractions Salon. This year the proceeds from the event went directly to the newly renovated Dairy Barn Arts Center. The night featured the likes of Lady Gaga, Cher, Adele, Stevie Nicks, Liza Minelli, and many more. The incredible drag performance was chronicled by WOUB’s Nickolas Oatley and Michael Johnson.
