17th ANNUAL BIG NIGHT OUT

The 17th Annual Big Night Out



Benefiting AIDS SERVICE CENTER



The 17th annual Big
Night Out will be held on Saturday May 3rd, 2014. This distinctive lifestyle
event explores the beauty and uniqueness of Pasadena and surrounding areas.
Proceeds benefit AIDS Service Center (ASC).Big
Night Out has become one of the region’s most enthusiastically anticipated
events and ASC’s premiere fundraiser. The concept is simple: Over five hundred
guests gather at a grand estate for the event’s gala reception and then proceed
to various themed dinner parties for the rest of the evening. The evening begins with a gala reception hosted at Stratford
Manor, the rare crown jewel of La-Canada Flintridge. Majestically situated on 4
acres, Stratford Manor is a magnificent French Normandy estate with a
breathtaking view of the San Gabriel Mountain Range. The reception is from 4:00
pm to 7:00 pm and will feature live and silent auctions, as well as samplings
of hors d’ oeuvres from the area’s finest restaurants. Immediately following
the gala, guests depart to numerous homes for intimate dinner parties hosted by
supporters of ASC. The themed dinner parties following the gala are hosted at a
unique array of beautiful homes. This year’s dinners include a special birthday
celebration replete with party favors and entertainment, a festive affair with
a menu inspired by a local politician’s grandmother’s secret Italian recipes, a
chic cityscape view of Downtown LA, The Ice House Comedy Club featuring a celebrity
comedian, a six course French cuisine themed soiree that will have you saying
“délicieux,” and much more. We are pleased and
delighted to announce the chairs of this year’s event: Andrea Vining of Morgan
Stanley and
Antonio Gallardo of FRAI Inc.

AIDS Service Center (ASC) is a community-based non-profit organization and has been serving those
affected by HIV/AIDS in Los Angeles County since 1987. ASC was created from a
need in the community. Our humble beginnings as an answering machine in the
basement under the stairwell of All Saints Church was in response to the
community’s need to seek answers to an illness that was affecting young men and
others. The organization grew over the years, continuing to develop
ground-breaking models for the care of this ever changing disease. ASC was one
of the first organizations in the United States to develop a Family &
Pediatrics Case Management program in 1991. Currently, ASC focuses on providing
housing assistance to people in need who are living with HIV; basic needs
assistance, such as providing household items; HIV/AIDS prevention, education,
and outreach; educational scholarships for advanced learning; and other
HIV/AIDS-related services. All of the services and programs ASC offers are free
of charge. Visit www.aidsservicecenter.org for more information about ASC.
