What we’re about
WELCOME to an exciting group of African-Americans and Special Friends of any culture or nationality. Average age range is 40 to 60+. Younger people comfortable with this age group may join as well. The purpose of Black Love and Friends Cincinnati is to provide a bevy of FUN activities and events where people can congregate and make new friends in an easy social networking way.
We dine out, dance, go to festivals, kayak, horseback ride, helicopter ride, get lost in the corn maze, and so many more activities! 😍
We love, honor and respect our Men and Women. Members are encouraged to offer ideas of activities and events that they would enjoy participating in.

See all- New Location!! Celebrating Xmas with Brunch and Bubbles! Dec 7, 2024; 12:30 PMMarriott Hotel, Dayton, OH
Wonderful Black Love Friends:
Because you have shown such great interest in our year end Xmas party, we will be moving it to a more spacious location. The maximum this space will hold is 30 people, so that will be the limit. If anyone signs up after the limit has been reached, they will be added to a “wait” list. So, please ensure your rsvp is correct.
We can also still have Bubbles and Brunch as the time will remain at 12:30 p.m. and the restaurant also offers mimosas; just not at $5.00. You’ll have the option of an a la carte buffet at $18.00 or ordering from their menu which can be accessed here: https://dewberry1850.com/breakfast-menu/
This special celebration will be held at:
The Marriott Hotel’s 1850 Dewberry Room
1414 S. Patterson, Dayton, OH
Free parking in front of the hotelWhen you come into the hotel, turn to the right and you’ll see an entrance to the restaurant. We’ll be in a private room past the restaurant. Someone will direct you there if necessary. You can also ask for the Black Love group.
Attire will still be semi-dressy, as we’ll be taking pictures. ***Please wear red or black if you have it.
If someone could bring a bluetooth with music, please let me know. There is a small space for dancing, but we can’t play the music too loud.
So come on out and enjoy the ambiance of this beautiful setting with your Black Love Friends and Family as we celebrate Xmas and a year of great Meetups.
It’s all about Love,
Rubie (aka Janice Jones)
