Greetings All: This is an amazing weekend for both, the House of Blahnik and the entire ballroom community.  In 2006, the House of Blahnik conceptualized a scholarship that would make a difference in the lives of people of color in the house/ball community.   Now, we see that vision come to fruition… Today, our first scholar, Ajmar Millar know by his House/Ball friends as “Ajay Balenciaga”, walks through Baccalaureate ceremonies a Morehouse College, in Atlanta, GA.  Tomorrow, May 18, 2008, he graduates!  He is our first scholarship recipient and a pillar in the community.  Best stated by Orrin Hatch, “There is a good reason they call these ceremonies ‘commencement exercises’.  Graduation is not the end; it’s the beginning.”   As Mr. Ajay Balenciaga moves through life representing us all, let’s use this time to celebrate him and honor his achievement!  ”He who refuses to embrace a unique opportunity loses the prize as surely as if he had failed,” by William James.    In Celebration, Father Jay Blahnik & The Entire House of Blahnik
