theclassicmoviemuse Come one and all, the party is about to begin…
All weekend long we are celebrating 90 years of the dazzling Miss Novak! Actress and Artist. Survivor and Poet. Icon and Rebel.
With this milestone birthday reached on February 13, 2023, she adds another notch to her belt with nonagenarian. Yet underneath it all, she remains the introspective girl from Chicago with paintbrush in hand, a heart full of dreams, and a burning desire to give love and be loved.
Check back for posts of all kinds through today to Monday and join us Tuesday for the wrap-up! I invite you now to explore, applaud, and be inspired by the captivating Kim Novak.
Talented participants, please leave me a link to your contributions in the comments below and I will add them to the roster as soon as I can. Thank you so much for supporting Kim in this way! This event would not be possible without you.
