Dolled-up revelers celebrated Christmas the way their parents and grandparents might have -- plus a little artistic license -- at the 1940s White Christmas Ball on December 7 at the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum. The event featured music from the Queen City Jazz Band, reenactments from the movie White Christmas, and live glassblowing. All photos by Philip Poston.
