his Saturday, August 15, we’re back at Radford Studio Center for the 14th Annual Ed Asner & Friends Celebrity Poker Night, and we want you there!
Join us for an incredible night of poker, food, friends, celebrities, great auction items, and a whole lot of fun — all benefiting The Ed Asner Family Center and the families we serve every day.
This year we’re proud to honor the hilarious and wonderful Ron Funches, whose advocacy for the autism community means so much to us.
There’s still time to get your tickets, but don’t wait.
Come play some poker. Rebuy. Bid big. Have a great night. And most importantly, help us raise the funds that keep our programs going.
🎟️ BUY YOUR TICKETS NOW!

See you Saturday!
A little snippet of an original song by Bella Zoe which will be featured in the feature film "Once More, Like Rain Man"! Special shoutout to Sue Ann Pien in the director's chair for rocking out mid-song! Can't wait to share more with you all!
Tomorrow evening, we’re proud to be part of a special event with Lincoln Center, Big Umbrella Festival, and ReelAbilities Film Festival.
We’ll be presenting a virtual screening of Once More, Like Rain Man, followed by a live workshop and conversation with Epic Players, a theatre company that highlights neurodivergent and autistic artists.
This project has been deeply meaningful to work on—not just as a film, but as part of a broader effort to bring more authentic, thoughtful storytelling around neurodivergence to the screen.
Events like this create space not only to watch, but to engage—bringing audiences, creators, and advocates into the same conversation.
If you’re interested in where storytelling and impact intersect, I’d encourage you to join us.
Tomorrow evening, Thursday, April 23rd
