Deets: Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA celebrated its Third Annual Kaleidoscope Ball on Saturday, May 2, 2015, presented by Harry Winston, Inc., at 3LABS in Culver City. Academy Award-Winning® Actress, Halle Berry, received the hospital’s “Kaleidoscope Award” with fellow Academy Award-Winner®, Goldie Hawn, who hosted the evening event. Kelvin Davis received the hospital’s highest honor, the “Philanthropic Leadership Award,” and rising star, Halston Sage, received the “Young Luminary Award.” The evening also featured a special musical performance by Grammy-Nominated artist Aloe Blacc.
For the first time ever, world-renowned street artists came together and curated a selection of art pieces that were auctioned off in celebration of the evening’s theme, “Los Angeles: An Art-Full City.” Award winning street artist, Mr. Brainwash, created a one-of-a-kind Mattel ride-on car to be donated for auction and each table will feature one of his “Life is Beautiful” sculptures, which will also be donated. In addition, Los Angeles favorite, Robert Vargas, painted live at the event, while internationally acclaimed artists PichiAvo and Shepard Fairey (best known for his wildly popular Obama Hope poster), along with Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, Ed Ruscha, Bill Wegman, Charles Arnoldi, Enrique Martinez Celaya, Mike Stilkey, Billy Al Bengston, Sage Vaughn, Charming Baker, among several others, all donated special pieces for this highly anticipated event.
The evening, co-chaired by Amanda Brown, Beth Friedman, Chloë Sommer, Marcelle Frey, and Tim Campbell, included a cocktail reception and special dinner prepared by Wolfgang Puck Catering, led by famed chef Wolfgang Puck. Presenting sponsor for the Kaleidoscope Ball was the House of Harry Winston.
In conjunction with the 2014 Kaleidoscope Ball, Harry Winston, Inc., announced with the UCLA Children’s Discovery and Innovation Institute the establishment of the Harry Winston Fellowship Fund. As part of the Harry Winston Brilliant Futures Charitable Program, the company is supporting the work of young pediatric physicians and scientists who are conducting research to prevent, treat, and cure disease and illness in children.
