Roger and Lynn Neal, Founders with Chairperson, Maryanne and Thomas Lai, held the extraordinary "5th Annual Roger Neal & Maryanne Lai Oscar Viewing Dinner and After Party" at the World Famous Hollywood Museum,( the former Max Factor Building) 1660 N. Highland Ave, Hollywood.

The Academy Awards viewing was a very elegant a sit down, black tie white glove service experience for the stars, their guests, sponsors and all attendees

This was the first year that the Roger Neal Oscar viewing party was given at the historic Hollywood Museum, and I commend his choice of venue.

We have to all thank Donelle Dadigan, the President and Founder (who I was fortunate enough to be seated at her dinner table) for creating a legacy of 10,000 genuine Showbiz treasures, showcasing 100 years of Hollywood, including the world's largest collection of Marilyn memorabilia for us to enjoy now, and future generations to come.

Keeping with tradition, the charities spotlighted received a generous donation check from Roger & Lynn Neal and partners Maryanne and Thomas Lai.

The charity that was honored this year was "The Jose Iturbi Foundation". The Presenting Sponsor was "Emerald Hare Wine and Sino TV Network". The delicious dinner was catered by Hoy's Wok Mandarin Restaurant on Sunset
