Whether the stars of Hollywood stroll down a carpet that is red or gold, the fashion parade will be shockingly wonderful. The gallery of illuminati will set the stage for one of the film world’s most exciting nights: the 96th Oscars and you can feel like you’re in the middle of the cinematic magic. This event beginning at 6 p.m. Sunday, March 10 honors the 12-time Oscar nominated Kate and supports the Katharine Hepburn Museum and education programs. The evening is hosted by the Kate’s Volunteer Guild and is presented by Jaguar North Haven and Land Rover North Haven. Emcees for the evening are Brett Elliot, executive director, and hopefully State Representative Devin Carney, a Kate trustee and grandson of Academy Award winning actor Art Carney.
For the 14th year, the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center will be going over the top to make the night spectacular so plan your glittery outfit now. Start by watching all the prestigious nominations. Will best picture go to “Oppenheimer,” “Barbie.” or “American Fiction?” Or could the tide turn and select “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Poor Things,” or “Past Lives?”
Could best actress go to Annette Bening as the super swimmer “Nyad” or to Casey Mulligan as Leonard Bernstein’s wife in “Maestro?” For best actor, will the nod go to Cillian Murphy for “Oppenheimer” or Paul Giamatti for “The Holdovers?” Who will take home Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Song, Best Costume, Best Animation and Documentary, and the list goes on. With Jimmy Kimmell as host for the fourth time be sporting a pink tux that night?
Maybe you won’t be at Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood but the Kate has all the razzle dazzle you could want from walking the red carpet, photos with cutouts of the stars, special guest hosts Ann Nyberg and Illeana Douglas as honorary co-chairs who both are big film fans, spectacular food from appetizers to desserts catered by Fresh Salt of Saybrook Point Resort & Marina, a fun candy shoppe for nibbling, a cash bar, a stuffed with goodies silent auction, a bevy of raffle treats, and so much more.
