The 600 block of Texas Street from McNeil to Louisiana, will be closed beginning at 10 a.m. Friday, Feb., 22 until Sunday, Feb. 24 for the Robbys party at Robinson Film Center. Detours will be plentiful, please follow the signs. Also beginning at 8 a.m. Friday morning, meters along the block will be bagged for no parking.
The street is needed so that the giant party can spill out into a lighted tent and guests can walk a Hollywood-inspired red carpet. This fourth annual Robbys celebration is held annually on the eve of the Academy Awards as a fundraiser for the Robinson Film Center.
