All of Chicago can anticipate a “star-filled” night when the DuSable Museum of African American History presents it’s annual “A Night Of 100 Stars Gala” on Saturday, February 20, 2010. A glittering and lavish evening of exquisite food and drink, award-winning entertainment, and the presentation of the 2010 “Night Of 100 Stars Awards,” are all on-tap during the 2010 black-tie, celebration, which has become the most sought-after ticket in town. The Gala, which is produced and hosted by the DuSable Museum of African American History’s Board of Trustees will take place at the Museum which is located at 740 East 56th Place (57th Street at South Cottage Grove Avenue) in Chicago’s Washington Park, from 6:00 PM until the stroke of Midnight.
This year the flashbulbs will “explode” as guests walk the Red Carpet upon entering the Museum, indulge in “out-of-this-world” cocktails and hor d’oeuvres, partake of a lavish buffet supper prepared by a “constellation of caterers,” enjoy world-class entertainment and witness the presentation of the “2010 Night of 100 Stars Awards,” which honor Chicagoans (current or former) who have made outstanding contributions to society, the city and to the world through their professions and civic activities.
And the winners are…
“Superstar” – Sherri Shepherd: Emmy Award-winning co-host of ABC-TV’s “The View”, actress, author and Executive Producer & star of “Sherri” on the Lifetime Cable Network.
“Meteor” – James Reynolds, Jr.: Chairman & CEO of Loop Capital
