HBO Golden Globes Party
The indoor-outdoor event, overseen by HBO’s Cindy Tenner and designed by Billy Butchkavitz, filled the pool deck and adjoining restaurant space with decor Butchkavitz said was inspired by an early 1930s movie set design by Cedric Gibbons. The Old Hollywood musical’s look inspired the party’s topaz and gold color palette.

Proceeds from September's Adler Planetarium Celestial Ball gala in Chicago went to benefit educational programs. Proud teen participants of those programs circulated to tables as so-called "science sommeliers." Guests could pick from a list of experiments and activities printed on the backs of their menus, and the budding scientists would perform their choice tableside. For example, "Touch Another World" allowed guests to hold pieces of meteorite in their hands, and “The Starry Messenger” allowed guests to look through refracted lenses.
