Animate[ArrayPlot[CellularAutomaton[n, {{1}, 0}, {40, All}]], {n, 0, 
  255, 1}, AnimationRunning -> False]

You can wrap Animate and Manipulate with Style and set the DefaultOptions for Panel:
 Style[#, DefaultOptions -> {Panel -> {Background -> LightBlue}}] & @
   Animate[ArrayPlot[CellularAutomaton[n, {{1}, 0}, {40, All}]], {n, 0, 255, 1}, 
      AnimationRunning -> False]

Style[#, DefaultOptions -> {Panel -> {Background -> LightBlue}}] & @
   Manipulate[ArrayPlot[CellularAutomaton[n, {{1}, 0}, {40, All}]], {n, 0, 255, 1}]
