Stillwater, MN 55082
* Open to all homeschoolers and their friends. Exceptions may apply. Space is limited. *
Homeschooled and PSEO Teens ages 14+ are welcome to attend!
Dress Code Explanation:
- At arrival time: This venue does not provide the space or privacy needed for outfit modifications, nor are we able to provide materials needed to bring outfits up to the Dress Code.
- So, if your attire does not pass the Dress Code, regretfully, you may have to leave the JX Event Venue until it does. Then you will be able to check into Prom.
- Friends are able to help each other to modify outfits, however we do not have space in the venue entry area for outfit modifications. So, you might be required to step outside the venue in order to help each other with your outfits. However, friends who have checked into Prom on Floor 3 cannot come back down to the entrance on Floor 1 or 2 to assist with outfit modifications, because they would have to leave the Prom to do so. It is against the Prom rules to leave Prom and then return after a teen has already checked in.
Have attire or outfit questions? Text us your questions or a photo of the attire: Cindy 612-845-1816 or Louisa 612-272-3778.
Dress Code Violations: We put so much effort into planning the best Prom possible for you and for your friends, because we truly want everyone to attend the Prom, remain at the Prom for as long as they choose, and to have a wonderful time! We want everyone to feel confident, respected, and empowered! So please come prepared to pass the Dress Code Greeters, to enter the Prom, and to remain within the Dress Code all evening!

The MN Homeschool Prom began and continues as a volunteer effort to create a Prom for teens who might otherwise never have the opportunity to attend a high school Prom. We go above and beyond to make our Prom elegant, fun, memorable, and educational, so our Prom Attendees and their friends come away with an enriching social experience they can carry with them through high school and beyond. We ask families and teens to join us in the spirit of our Prom, to meet us in the middle, especially in regard to the Dress Code, so as many teens as possible can attend Prom.
