On Sunday, Feb. 27, Center on Halsted, 3656 N. Halsted, will host its annual “On The Red Carpet” Oscar Party.
Guests will enjoy sponsored cocktails and buffet while the Academy Awards are broadcast live on the big screen in the Hoover-Leppen Theatre. For those who prefer to mingle, video monitors will be stationed throughout the third floor—even on the roof garden, which will be encased in a heated tent exclusively for the night’s event. Guests may bid on vacations, spa packages and more in our silent auction throughout the evening.
For the first time ever, the center is conducting an Oscar prediction competition. For $10, guests can submit a ballot with their predictions before the telecast begins, and results will be tabulated throughout the night. The person with the most correct predictions will be announced at the conclusion of the ceremony, and will split the winnings with the center.
Doors open for the red carpet pre-show at 6 p.m., and the telecast begins at 7.pm. Director-level tickets ($75) include admission to the party, and producer tickets ($125) include reserved telecast seating in the theater with table service. See www.centeronhalsted.org.
