“I am tasked with arranging these folks in a way so that they are mildly interacting,” explains Kathryn.  “In previous years I have arranged them having cocktails around a piano, draped in and around a restaurant booth, etc. This year I have them arranged in a nod to Vanity Fair’s Annie Liebovitz Academy Award winners tableaus. Rather than taking/engaging with one another they sit together and gaze out at the viewer. I think it works really well!”
