NOA - Night Of the Arts NYC

I had a wonderful time at New York City's annual NOA - Night Of the Arts, held on the evening of November 13th at The LGBT Center of NYC in Manhattan's Greenwich Village. Renowned fine visual artists and photographers had their images on display and performance artists took to the stage.  It was a magnificent showcase where artisans and art lovers were given the opportunity to mix, mingle and soak in some culture.  There was also gourmet food and an open vintage wine and soda bar making for an unforgettable evening.  The event was curated by Armando Chavaz and Scott Walsh and featured the stunning art of dear friends Rob Ordonez, Anu, Ryan Janek Woloski, Tim Otte, Timothy Bouldry, Keith Taylor, Geary Marcello and many others with performances by Eric Alan, Rock Star Sissy, P-Vaz and others. Me and Ryan did a special entertainment news report for Out and About Television.

The Phantom's Masquerade Ball

Halloween was extended a day when hundreds of revelers had the most wonderful time at The Phantom's Masquerade, a lavish gala held at the Baroque-Gothic historic landmark Loews Jersey Theater at 54 Journal Square, Jersey City, New Jersey on Friday evening November 1st.  The opulent venue was the perfect setting to recreate the Masquerade Ball in the classic Musical, The Phantom of the Opera. There were sparkling beverages, gourmet food, music, dancing and live entertainment with Lovari, acrobatic dancers Antoine du Pole and Lady Tee, opera divas and the Phantom himself!
