Hollywood and the creative community united at the Marciano Art Foundation for the third biennial Sexy Beast Gala. Olivia Wilde, Jason Sudeikis, Ali Larter, and more came together for the evening, all in the name of Planned Parenthood.

There was plenty to do upon arrival. Between LCD’s pop-up boutique and the silent auction benefiting Planned Parenthood, art enthusiasts were busy. Surrounded by contemporary works, guests sampled food and drinks from coveted restaurants across Los Angeles; it was impossible to resist Jon & Vinny’s meatballs and McConnell’s churro ice cream.

But the centerpiece of the gala was the spectacular variety show hosted by comedian Kate Berlant with a musical performance by Moses Sumney and Kelsey Lu. All of the proceeds from the evening benefited Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, which offers reproductive care and empowerment without discrimination.
