In 98 years of service to the Greater Cincinnati community, the JLC has incubated or impacted more than 120 programs and projects, including numerous self-sustaining nonprofits that continue to grow and thrive today.

Patrons enjoyed a delicious luncheon before enjoying an enchanted runway show emceed by WLWT morning anchor Megan Mitchell.  The event featured the latest looks for women, men, and children from Cincinnati’s finest boutiques including Alligator Purse, Castle House, Cincy Shirts, J. McLaughlin, Monkee’s of Madeira, The Pink Box, Pitaya, Rory Maxwell, Sloane, Trevor Furbay BeSpoke Tailors, and Trend Boutique.

McLaughlin, Le Fashion Cottage, Kendra Scott, M.  Hopple & Co, Monkee’s of Madeira, Rodan + Fields, Rory Maxwell and Stella + Dot.
