Get ready for the 20s to roar to life as the National Constitution Center presents American Spirits: The Rise And Fall of Prohibition, a world premiere exhibition that brings the whole story of Prohibition vividly to life for the first time.

American Spirits will debut from October 19, 2012 to April 28, 2013, before embarking on a nationwide tour.

But before that, the center is kicking it all off with a Prohibition-themed Bootlegger’s Ball Thursday night, October 18.

Flappers, don your favorite beaded silk chiffon dress, bob your hair and slip on your best dancing shoes. Gents, grab your top hats and memorize the password.

Get jazzed for the Bootlegger’s Ball, a swinging speakeasy on site at the National Constitution Center, complete with Jazz Age music, Lindy Hop and Charleston lessons, whiskey cocktails and authentic era cuisine.

Admission to the ball is $35 for museum members and $40 for non-members (ages 21+) and includes advanced access to American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition before it makes its world debut.

But Uwishunu readers get the chance to enter to win free admission for themselves and a +1. All you have to do is enter below. You can enter once a day, every day, through Tuesday, October 16, when we’ll select a lucky winner.

Bring your best Roaring ’20s attire!
