I was delighted to be part of a festive and unique event, a wine tasting, auction and raffle to benefit Bronx Pride LGBT Center that took place in the magnificent LaMagnus Art Galley in Downtown Manhattan New York City on December 16th. Celebrities from the area donated wine and gift baskets to be raffled and auctioned off to raise much needed funds for the community. Wine, and some chocolate and maple syrup was donated by the reigning Miss New York Claire Buffie, Senator Tom Duane, designer Kenneth Cole, Rosie Perez, Michael Lucas, Drag Queens from RuPaul's Drag Race and The Imperial Court, Chris Ryan, David Mixner, Appolonia Cruz, The Legendary Mark Schulte and many others. My donation was combined with the wine, CDs and gifts donated by dear friend Lovari, an actor (Salt, Running Wilde) and recording artist (The Statement) to create a delightful gift package. I wonderful time was had by all, wine always helps.
