Cate Berger, Equitas’ development director, said the theme is one that will allow for quick costumes for those concerned about time to get in costume on a Friday evening.

The theme reveal isn’t the only reason you’ll want to attend Friday’s party. There also will be performances and specialty cocktails procured by The Rubi Girls. Light appetizers, cash bar, and — of course — you, setting the dance floor on fire!

The signature Masquerage event will be held Oct. 26. at the Steam Plant, 617 E. Third St. in downtown Dayton. Since its inception, the event has raised $1.5 million. That figure includes $90,000 raised at last year's event.

Masquerage is Equitas Health's biennial signature event. This year's event represents one of the largest public opportunities to raise awareness and critical funding for HIV/AIDS medical care and treatment, HIV prevention (which includes PrEP), and a variety of other services like primary care, behavioral health counseling, and dental care — one of the the highest unmet needs for those living with HIV.
