In Person: Thom Filicia

Three opportunities to meet one of those Queer Eye for the Straight Guy guys.

By Laura Cassidy May 17, 2011

Need tips for creating rooms you’ll love? Thom Felicia wants to help. He also wants you to go to the Pio Square Masins on Thursday, May 19 and the W Hotel and the Masins in Belleuve on Friday, May 20.

Where: Downtown’s W Seattle; 1112 Fourth Ave, Seattle AND both locations of the home store Masins

What: The W Seattle can entice you with Grey Goose cocktails, they can lure you with bites from Earth and Ocean, but DIFFA’s best shot at getting local and area design industry folks to come hang out lies with celebrity designer and product developer Thom Felicia. The former Queer Eye for the Straight Guy star has a new book, Thom Felicia Style: Inspired Ideas for Creating Rooms You’ll Love. He’ll be signing the book at the fundraiser; live DJs and dancing? Yes, those are on the agenda, too.

You can also meet Felicia in what might be termed his natural environment. At the interiors shop Masins in Pioneer Square; the party involves cocktails, a wine bar, luxe silent auction, and a fashion and jewelry presentation from Barneys and Alvin Goldfarb Jeweler.

The Bellevue Masins location is hosting, along with Northwest Society of Interior Designers an even more low-key book signing and meet-and-greet.

When: May 19 from 6 to 9 at Masins Pioneer Square. Cost is $40 or $75 (are you a VIP? Pony up for the latter). Tickets can be purchased via DIFFA Seattle.

May 20 from 3 to 5 at Masins on Main Street in Bellevue. RSVP to Bellevue (@) masins.com. This event is FREE.

May 20 from 6 to 9 at the W Seattle. Cost is $30 and includes cocktails and appetizers. RSVP to Christina Madden at rsvpevents.wseattle (@) whotels.com or purchase tickets on dot429.com.

All proceeds from all events benefit DIFFA.
