Get Married at Masquerage 2015

September 28, 2015 By Dayton Most Metro

newelvis20Masquerage, an annual event that raises funds for AIDS Resource Center Ohio (ARC Ohio), is known for its incredible themes that raise the bar each year on décor and patron attire, and this year is no exception.  Masquerage 2015 guests as well as the venue will be decked out Vegas-style to celebrate Sin City in the Gem City. This year, ARC Ohio and its Associate Board are “upping the stakes” and adding a new element to Dayton’s “parties of parties for a cause.”

This year couples attending Masquerage will be able to get married at the event. “Kitschy chapel weddings are one of the staples of the Las Vegas Strip,” said ARC Ohio Masquerage Committee Chair Lauren Williams. “Thanks to the recent Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage, we now have the opportunity to add an extra special element to this year’s Masquerage that is open to everyone.” Weddings may be added as a premium ticket package.

Masquerage attendees who wish to commit to their significant others during the event can purchase one of two ticket options: The Chapel of Love package ($200) includes two general admission tickets to Masquerage plus the ceremony and officiant, cupcakes, wedding photos, and champagne to toast. The High Roller package ($400) includes everything in the Chapel of Love package, with two special features: upgrades to the Red Ribbon Lounge and special guest officiant Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley. “I am proud to celebrate marriage equality,” said Mayor Nan Whaley. “I appreciate the opportunity to marry couples and support ARC Ohio.”

Tickets to this year’s Masquerage, to be held Sat, October 17th at the Roundhouse at the Montgomery County Fairground, are on sale now from ticket ambassadors or online at www.masquerage.org. Many more volunteers are needed to help the nonprofit throw the big bash; volunteer opportunities and online registration are also available at the website.

Since its inception, fundraising event Masquerage has raised more than $1.25 million in unrestricted funds in support of ARC Ohio’s life-saving services.  More than 9,000 Masquerage attendees have enjoyed a unique and entertaining experience while supporting ARC Ohio.

Q &A With Food Network’s Ted Allen – In Dayton To Host AIDS Fundraiser

April 17, 2015 By Lisa Grigsby

choppedThe Food Network host of Chopped, Ted Allen, will return to his home state of  Ohio this weekend to host a 3 city fundraiser for the AIDS Resource Center Ohio.    In a recent phone interview with Mr Allen, he shared that  “Too many peole mistakenly believe that AIDS isn’t anything to talk about anymore.  We have too many young people, who didn’t see the deaths in the 80″s and 90’d and don’t know the disaster we’ve lived through.

It’s great that we have medicines and treatments and preventative options but too many of our youth need to realize that HIV is 100% preventable.  Meds are expensive and have side affects, this isn’t something you just take a pill for and forget.  Almost 1/2 of new infections are 13-24 years old.  African American women are hugely impacted by HIV. ”  He shared that it’s his honor to serve as the Chair of this statewide fundraiser.

Ted Allen first received national attention as on of the hosts of the 2003-2007 Bravo series Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. 


We asked Ted to tell us about his times on that show:queer

It was the best times,  filled with humor and raunchy rowdy, guys tooling all over town in that convertible. Thom Filicia is one of the  funniest guys I know and the worst driver ever.  I can’t even believe I’m still alive, he’d be speeding down the road, and telling a story and he’d turn around to look you directly  in the eye and I was wearing this fake seatbelt, it’s a miracle we’re all still here.
What an honor it was to be a part of the first tv show ever to have 5 openly gay men being themselves.  We’d get hundreds of letters from young gay kids talking about how great it was to be able to watch that show with their parents and laugh.  Just getting one such letter would be an honor, but we got so many.  We truly were so lucky…
Is it was a burden to be known as a gay role model?

Oh no it’s such a privilege, if we are making any difference, well just look at how times have changed.  I am legally married in my state.  But we’re not there yet, it’s 2 steps forward and one back – Indiana.    Just last night I hosted a benefit for Baily House ( a  who serve those who are homeless with  HIV+, who and to be able to shine the light on a cause you believe in wholeheartedly, what an honor.  And I got to meet Joel Gray and Jane Pauly, what great fringe benefits.

On Chopped we know you see tons of ingredients in those baskets.  What would you like in your basket if you were a contestant? 

How about just some cheese, eggs, mustard, mayo and lamb chops.  I’s so sick of gummy bears and all the weird stuff.  Think about it- it’s the hardest show there is. It’s set up for failure. Three  of the 4 fail.  Who can cook amazing things in 20 minutes when they start out as bone in 3 pound leg of lamb? It’s just hard.  And the judges want you to succeed, they want to eat good food!  tedcooks

 

I asked him if there were any shows that went bad and couldn’t air:

 We can’t afford not to complete a show, we work for 12 hours to get one episode.  So luckily, knock on wood we haven’t had a disaster that we didn’t overcome..

As for a personal disaster, when I was writing for Chicago Magazine, I was having the Dining Editor Penny Pollack over to my house for brunch.  I had made fresh cinnamon rolls and thought I’d leave them in the oven so they’d be warm and just as the doorbell rings I see a pool of butter and cinnamon pooling down the oven door onto my floor and my smoke alarm goes off.  Welcome Penny….



Ted hosted another Food Network Show The Best Thing I Ever Ate, so of course we asked about those meals:

I’ve had so many, like at Minbar by Jose Andres,  a tiny restaurant with 6 seats and more chefs than seats where they feed you one scrumptious morsel after another…. But I’ve also had a great burger at a neighborhood join in Brooklyn with hand ground beef and a perfectly cooked runny egg on top.

That’s the wonderful thing about food, there are so many great  foods and international cuisines, you could have like 900 lifetimes of best meals …

That show was so much fun, I could be more of myself and have fun and go unscripted…

What’s your favorite pig out food?
Pepperoni Pizza= but only with good real peperoni- it it curls up and gets that puddle of grease on it it’s the good stuff – not that flat stuff that lays there

Or macaroni and cheese with kiolbassa- not so good for yo, but oh yum!

What food trend are you over?J. Ryan Roberts - jryan@jryanroberts.com

 Desserts with bacon- can we move on? Don’t get me wrong- I love bacon, but thick cut bacon is a mistake.  It’s to hard to make crispy and ends up being chewy.  Good bacon should be cooked slowly and served crispy
Food Trucks- it’s confusing.  I don’t want to have to chase you all over town for a meal and I want to enjoy my food at a table with a  bathroom nearby.  I get that it’s a lower cost for some to get into than a bricks and mortar option and I respect that, so I get it.


Who is your celebrity crush?
 Oh I’m too old to have one, I don’t know, maybe Neil Patrick Harris.  He’s lovely and so is husband, as are their kids.


 
What else would you like to share?
As much as I enjoy hosting events and getting to  meet people, I wish I didn’t have to.
New York City Councilmen Corey Johnson was a speaker on  Gala I recently hosted  and he has spent most of his life telling the story of coming out as gay in high school, as a captain of the football team.  He’s spent his whole adult life talking about being out, gay rights, serving others.  As long as we still need things like the Ohio AIDS Walk  I’ll be there.  It’s a privilege to get to talk to people about a cause I’m passionate about and we need to work together until this is conquered..
We are not done yet!!!tedarc

 

If you’d like to join Ted Allen Sunday, April 19th for the Dayton 5K AIDS Walk, which also has a 1K stroll and a 16 mile bikeride, you can sign up online until Saturday at 5pm, or just register at the even.  On Sunday registration begins at 10am at UD River Campus  (the old NCR Headquarters) at 1700 S Patterson  Blvd.  The Walk/Run/Ride steps off about noon.  Help raise $1000 and you can join Ted Allen at a Grand Walker brunch at Coco’s Bistro.   Check the AIDS Walk site for more info.

Tickets on Sale Saturday For Dayton’s Premier Wine & Gourmet Food Event!

March 11, 2015 By Lisa Grigsby

DigitalAssests-fleurs-06The original “Party in the Park” was the brain child of two friends, Vail Miller Sr. of Heidelberg and Mike Frank of Arrow Wine.  With a mission of bringing wine out of just the wine cellars and  to the general public, the idea of a wine festival was born.  Now 24 years later, Fleurs et Vin is the most anticipated, talked about and attend wine event in the Miami Valley.

On Sunday May 17 from 1- 4pm, wine connoisseurs and novices alike will sample the best wines from around the world while enjoying culinary treats from 20 of the top independent restaurants in the region.

Last year there were over 420 wines for sampling, as well as a  beer garden featuring Belgium brews.  Wines and beer selections for this year are still being put together.   And if that isn’t enough to keep you busy,  J.t. Fedrick and his band  will be in full swing, the dance floor open and wonderful baskets available for bidding in the silent auction.  And come 4pm, the best entertainment of the day can often be found at the live auction, where thousands of dollars are raised in just minutes iwth the sale of wine collectibles, with proceeds benefiting AIDS Resource Center Ohio.  If you’d like to support the even with a donation to the auction  you can start that process with this online donation form.

Tickets for Fleurs et Vin run $70 in advance $75 at the door, but this Saturday only,  Arrow Wine will host a Super Saturday tasting from 11am – 5pm at both the Far Hills and Centerville stores, and the ARC Ohio Associate Board members will be selling Fleurs et Vin tickets for just $60.

THE LUNCHBOX and GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL at THE NEON

April 17, 2014 By Jonathan McNeal Leave a Comment

LUNCHBOX FacebookHello Everyone,

THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL is starting to fade..but it’s still performing well enough to stick around for another week. That said, this could be its last. Hurry down if you still need to see it (or see it again).

On Friday, we will open the charming, feature debut film from director Ritesh Batra – THE LUNCHBOX. T.T. Stern-Enzi of DAYTON CITY PAPER just gave the film an “A” review. He wrote, “A soulful performance by Irrfan Khan serves as the key ingredient in this marvelous dish.”

Synopsis for THE LUNCHBOX: Currently rated 96% FRESH on Rottentomatoes.com “Middle class housewife Ila is trying once again to add some spice to her marriage, this time through her cooking. She desperately hopes that this new recipe will finally arouse some kind of reaction from her neglectful husband. She prepares a special lunchbox to be delivered to him at work, but, unbeknownst to her, it is mistakenly delivered to another office worker – a lonely man on the verge of retirement. Curious about the lack of reaction from her husband, Ila puts a little note in the following day’s lunchbox, in the hopes of getting to the bottom of the mystery. This begins a series of lunchbox notes between the two, and the mere comfort of communicating with a stranger anonymously soon evolves into an unexpected friendship.” (taken from Sony Classics) Visit the film’s official website by clicking this LINK.

This is really spectacular, and we truly appreciate your support and positive word-of-mouth.

This week, we are going to hold both current attractions. Though TIM’S VERMEER didn’t have record attendance, it did well enough to stick around. With all the kudos from audience members, we think it’s worth holding for a 2nd week. That said, we plan to move forward with THE LUNCHBOX on April 18. Hurry down if you need to see TIM’S VERMEER. Details and showtimes for each of our current films are available at www.neonmovies.com
