Atomic Liquors is hosting its 6th annual Speakasy Party to celebrate Repeal Day at 8 p.m. Dec. 4. Take a step back in time when booze and bars were illegal as the bar transforms into a Prohibition-era speakeasy by boarding up the windows and turning off the lights, giving the illusion that it’s closed to passerby. But inside, the music will be playing and guest bartenders will be slinging special libations created exclusively for the night. Guests are highly encouraged to wear burlesque themed costumes and will need the secret password to enter - "la fée verte" which means the green fairy.
