Sojourner House’s 6th Annual Masquerade Ball
RISBJ Staff | Nov 15, 2016
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Sojourner House’s 6th Annual Masquerade Ball will return to the
Providence Biltmore on Friday November 18, 2016. This year we are recreating a tropical
Cuban paradise with Havana Nights! Join us for a Latin-inspired affair that will feature
entertainment by Chifferobe’s TropiGals and the Flamenco Afro-Cuban band Infusion Evolution.
The event will be emceed by LuLu Locks, and will offer Cuban food, salsa dancing, a cocktail
hour, and a cash bar. This year’s ball is especially important because we will be celebrating forty
years of working to end domestic violence in our communities. Since our inception in 1976, we
have supported over 60,000 victims and survivors of domestic and sexual violence in Rhode
Island.
Rhode Island Food Fights will once again host a cake competition featuring Cuban inspired
cakes created by local bakeries. A host of celebrity judges will be on hand to select the winner
of the cake competition. Judges include Miss Rhode Island Shruti Nagarajan, WPRI’s
Shannon Heggy, Providence Monthly’s Grace Lentini, handbag designer Kent Stetson,
co-owner of “Say Cheese” Lupe Aguilar, and Rhode Island’s very own Olympian, Molly
Huddle. Miss Kitty Litter will also be coming out of retirement for one night only to host our
live auction. It is sure to be an event that you do not want to miss! All proceeds from the event
will go directly towards supporting our programs and services dedicated to victims and survivors
of domestic and sexual violence. For more information, or to purchase tickets, please visit
