“I can’t believe it’s been 10 years,” says C Magazine Founder and Editorial Director Jennifer Hale at the Richard Meier-designed Gagosian Gallery in Beverly Hills, where we commemorated our 10-year anniversary with a lavish celebration of the golden state on Wednesday, September 16. “It’s fun to take a moment to reflect,” Hale says of the night’s festivities. We celebrated the special night with many friends of C including Konstantin Kakanias, Kelly Lynch, Alex Israel, Larry Gagosian, Jacqui Getty, Todd Traina, George Kotsiopoulos, Armie Hammer and Elizabeth Chambers.

The evening was a true ode to California’s creative class, held under the stars on an outdoor patio awash in wanderlust-inspiring decor dreamed up by Los Angeles-based event design team, Gypset. Farm-to-table bites by Malibu-based Jennifer Naylor made the rounds as did wines by Napa Valley’s Blackbird Vineyards. One of the night’s surprises included world-class magician Doug McKenzie, who wowed guests with his mesmerizing tricks, while indie band Golden Coast performed and DJ Michael Smith—fittingly the DJ of our magazine’s initial party in 2005—queued up the night’s soundtrack.

Photographers Amanda Demme, Dewey Nicks, Matthias Vriens-McGrath, and Randall Slavin joined the candle-lit soirèe with designers Monique Lhuillier, George Esquivel, Kendall Conrad, Michelle Mason and Robert Keith. Oh, what a decade—cheers to many more.
