…it’s on to the Oscars. Connecticut is blessed with (at least) two great events that celebrate Hollywood’s big night. And for members of the news media, the telecasts and celebrations take place on Sunday evenings when most are not on duty.
A 4-time Oscar winner is a native daughter of the state so why not watch the show at her theater?
Join us for the Kate’s annual red-carpet event that honors our 12-time Oscar Nominated, 4-time-winning namesake and makes for a great party and fundraiser. Walk the red carpet. Pose for a photo or two. Hold a real Oscar. Watch the Oscars live on the Kate’s gigantic screen as you indulge in delicious appetizers, treats, and beverages. Come and celebrate like a star!
