The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures holds its sixth annual gala in Los Angeles tonight. The museum has named filmmaker and composer John Carpenter, actor Colman Domingo and actor Charlize Theron as this year’s honorees, and says Taylor Swift is scheduled to perform.
The museum describes the gathering as a fundraiser for exhibitions, screenings and educational programs. Its announced program recognizes work across filmmaking and performance rather than presenting a competitive awards ballot.
This preview reports the museum’s plans before the evening takes place. It does not imply attendance, describe a performance that has not happened, or claim any unannounced guests or remarks.
