Event Description: Come and enjoy a celebration of Gone With the Wind and support a wonderful cause! More than just another fan gathering, this event will spotlight Kansas native Hattie McDaniel. Her role as Mammy earned her an Academy Award, making her the first African-American to win an Oscar and helping the film to go one to win a Best Picture Oscar. Sadly, in 1952, Hattie McDaniel died of breast cancer. This event will help to promote awareness and raise money for this terrible disease that takes the lives of so many each year. This weekend long event is comprised of a screening of Gone With the Wind at the historic Screenland Armour Theater, period dress ball with live 19th century music and Gone with the Wind costume contest, wine tasting, a catered picnic, living history demonstrations, and panels featuring our special guests, including: • Patrick Curtis – portrayed Baby Beau Wilkes • Greg Giese – portrayed the younger Baby Beau Wilkes • Joseph Yakovetic - Gone With the Wind Artist • Morgan Brittany - actress from TV Show “Dallas” and the movies “Gable & Lombard” and “The Scarlett O’Hara War” • Carlton Jackson - author of “Hattie: The Life of Hattie McDaniel” For more information and event registration, please visit our website at: www.itswindieinkansas.webs.com or E-Mail: itswindieinkansas@gmail.com
