The Night
Through the Looking Glass is the 2026 edition of the D&M Halloween Party, hosted by Daniel Nutkis and Marcella Raneri, taking place October 31, 2026, at Fashion Industry Gallery (FIG) in Dallas.
It is an immersive world shaped by performance, scenic design, installation, music, hospitality and visual storytelling. Guests do not sit in front of it. They move through it, and the night rearranges itself around them as they go.

Artists
The night is also the first public platform for the D&M Emerging Artist Awards. Five Selected Artists develop original work for Through the Looking Glass and see it performed inside the world rather than staged beside it. Three of the five are named Award Recipients at the event.
For the five Selected Artists of the D&M Emerging Artist Awards, this extraordinary production becomes both the creative brief and the stage. Working alongside the Creative Team, they will develop and present original choreography that becomes an integral part of this immersive world, bringing their own artistic voice to one of the Party’s most ambitious chapters.
