Culture Shock: Celebrity Watch
On Wednesday, September 23, 120 stylish guests converged on c5 at the ROM for Celebrity Watch - an unforgettable evening of film and fame, produced in association with Filminute, the international one-minute film festival. The evening included a gourmet meal, and a sneak peek at Vanity Fair Portraits: Photographs 1913-2008, presented by the Bay, a star-studded exhibition of celebrity photographs from the archives of Vanity Fair magazine. Interspersed throughout the evening, guests watched the 25 films short-listed by Filminute and voted for an 'Audience Choice' award. Proceeds from this event support the ICC's exhibitions and public programs. See below for photos from this glamourous evening, and stay tuned for details for the 2010 installment of Culture Shock!
