Who, what, where & why Marc Figgins Photography
Concours d’Elegance celebrates motorsports history The 43rd annual Cincinnati Concours d’Elegance took place at Ault Park with the theme “An Exhibition of Motorsports Excellence.” The show featured 13 categories of classic, vintage and exotic automobiles and motorcycles, with more than 200 collector vehicles, including two race cars from Andretti Autosport. The event, sponsored by ExAir, also featured the Will Sherman Automotive Art Show at Ault Park Pavilion and Brunch at the Pavilion. Before the Ault Park show, at a Hangar Party hosted by Executive Jet Management at Lunken Airport and sponsored by Porsche of the Village, more than 600 guests viewed a display of jets, along with collector and exotic automobiles. A catered “dinner by-the-bite” was accompanied by a silent wine auction, with proceeds benefiting Juvenile Arthritis/Arthritis Foundation.
