Check out The Robbys 2024. It was a night to remember

Partygoers were on the edge of their seats Saturday evening as moody music played throughout the three-story Robinson Film Center (RFC).

On June 15, the RFC hosted its annual fundraiser, The Robbys. This red-carpeted event was themed after Alfred Hitchcock and allowed for partygoers to explore their creativity through attire.

Among the attendees were women dressed with birds attached to their dresses. In the corner of the Grand Ballroom was a shower where partygoers could re-enact the infamous scene from Hitchcock's Psycho.

The Robbys is a labor of love and the planning for this one night began 90 days ago.

It was a night to remember. The Robbys is more than just a party-- it's the theater's major fundraising event and the proceeds from ticket sales benefit its programming all year long.

Wendell Riley, Executive Director of RFC said, "we are not just here for a party and actually far from it. For the past 16 years, we at RFC have been steadfast in our mission to educate, enrich and entertain the region through film."
