Lafayette Celebration Dinner and Ball, Cincinnati, OH
Cincinnati Masonic Center 317 East Fifth Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202
Enjoy delicious French cuisine and Ballroom Dancing (with an instructor) in the beautiful historic Cincinnati Masonic Center building in downtown Cincinnati.
Lafayette’s visit to Cincinnati included Lafayette Masonic Lodge No.81, and a festive dinner and ball in his honor. We are fortunate to be able to celebrate the bi-centennial anniversary by holding a dinner and ball in the Masonic Center Grand Ballroom and Auditorium!
The evening will include displays of Lafayette artifacts and information in the Founders Hall, a welcoming address from Lafayette, and celebration leaders from local and national organizations including Free & Accepted Masons, Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Sons of the American Revolution (SAR), Alliance Francaise de Cincinnati, and American Friends of Lafayette (AFL). The keynote speaker will be Julien Icher, President and Founder of The Lafayette Trail.
The evening will begin with happy hour and petits fours, and dinner will include several delicious options (including vegetarian) and Lafayette’s favorite dessert.
Music for the ball is provided by Maestro Laurence Bonhaus and the Cincinnati Civic Orchestra, and historic dance instructor Jeanette Watts will guide us in a Grand March and provide dance instruction throughout the ball. It will be a grand time for celebration!
This will be a ticketed public event.
More detailed information and a website link will be added in January.
