Farmington Valley Film Commission holds “Red Carpet Gala.”


 


If you’ve ever wanted to feel like a celebrity in your own backyard, the Farmington Valley Film Commission invites you to enjoy a live telecast of the Academy Awards show on Sunday, February 24th. The event will be held at the Belle Terrace at Avon Old Farms, 1 Nod Road in Avon.


Enter on the red carpet in black-tie optional attire. Enjoy pre-awards festivities and entertainment, a complimentary glass of champagne when you enter, and wine/beer tasting from 7pm-8pm (cash bar available).


 


Enjoy the open bar from 8pm - 9pm (cash bar thereafter); savor the flavors at the buffet dinner followed by dessert. Watch a live telecast of the Academy Awards. Prizes will be given for most glamorous female, male, and couple. The evening will begin at 7:00pm and conclude after the final award is presented.


 


The Red Carpet Gala will be hosted by Fox 61 on-air personality Maggie Slysz and members of the state’s newest production studio, Atlantian Films, will be on hand to accept resumes and photos for a shot at a walk on role in an upcoming feature film being shot in Connecticut.


 


The cost is $60.00 per person, or $450 per table of eight. For cash or check ticket sales, please call the FVVA office at 860-676-8878.
