LET’S
FACE IT: On most nights, Washington, D.C., is more Spam than
glam. Our headliners are policy talkers, not red-carpet
walkers; we have a massive celebrity-trade-deficit with
Hollywood and New York. Clearly, what this town needs is
some home-spun glitz. And May 16,
2006, One In Ten started
that glitz spinning. Hundreds of
One In Ten friends walked between the velvet ropes, along
the red carpet, dodging paparazzi on their way into the
Kimpton Helix hotel.
Guests filled the lounge and conference rooms with glamour,
the tinkle of cocktail glasses and the buzz of inside chatter,
and they browsed along tables filled with thousands of
dollars worth of jewelry, paintings, engravings, sculpture,
textiles and more. Bidding in the silent and the live auctions
was robust and generous. And the evening — from dusk
arrivals (just like the Oscars) through
the late-night live auction — was
great for fun and for fund-raising, all for
the cause of supporting glbt arts.
