Party In The House is the most fabulous event of the year.
This highly anticipated event, hosted by our fabulous interior design community, brings together friends, and dedicated supporters of New Life Furniture Bank. Join us for an unforgettable night filled with fun as the Designer Showcase features some of Cincinnati’s top interior designers who are using their artistic talent to transform a piece of donated furniture, bringing color and life back into the piece.
Sponsorship opportunities are still available. Please contact Karen Wirthlin, Corporate Partnerships Manager at [email protected].
