Join Sojourner House for our 13th Annual Masquerade Ball.
Friday, November 17, 2023 from 7-11pm at the Graduate Providence.
This year’s theme is….Celestial Visions!
On Friday, November 17th at 7pm, Sojourner House will host its 13th Annual Masquerade Ball inside the grand ballroom at the Graduate Providence. This year’s theme is Celestial Visions, providing a star map to a party out of this world! Guests can anticipate a dazzling evening of live music, dancing, stardust, and fortune telling.
Dripping in cosmic elegance, this year’s festivities will include an astrological inspired cocktail hour, a silent auction, delectable hors d’oeuvres, and special performances from Toys 2 Men, Extraordinary Rendition Band (ERB), and more! During the ball, Sojourner House will sponsor a celestial-themed dessert contest and challenge the city’s best bakeries to create the top voted confectionery masterpiece. And of course, once our “celebrity” judges cast their votes, guests of Celestial Visions will be invited to sample and savor the entries!
Tickets are $125 per person or $150 for a “Champagne Supernova” Ticket, which includes a glass of prosecco. There will be a cash bar at the event.
The Masquerade Ball is Sojourner House’s largest yearly fundraising event and helps to raise critical unrestricted funds to support the groups anti-violence mission.
Initially founded by a group of Providence residents and Brown University students, staff, and faculty members, Sojourner House has been serving victims and survivors of abuse through a variety of services and education initiatives since 1976. Thanks to the efforts of their many supporters, Sojourner House has grown from a part-time, volunteer hotline into a provider of comprehensive services available to victims of abuse 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In the agency’s 47 year history, they’ve provided support to over 60,000 individuals.
The organization’s goal is to promote healthy relationships by providing culturally sensitive support, advocacy, housing, and education for victims and survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking; and to effect systems change. They offer support groups, emergency shelter, transitional and permanent supportive housing, sexual health advocacy, emotional counseling, immigration support, professional and community trainings, and more.

Over the past twelve years, we have brought together nearly 4,000 total supporters to recognize the work that Sojourner House does.
