Things to do in Denver when you're gay: Party with Oscar

Film fans throughout the region are invited to the Denver Film Society's Party With Oscar®,a celebration of the 82nd Annual Academy Awards, on Sunday, March 7 beginning at 5p.m. at the Museum of Contemporary Art. This year's event celebrates the nominations of local filmmakers and films that made their Colorado debut at the 32nd Starz Denver Film Festival in November 2009.

Hosted by the Denver Film Society and presented by Moët & Chandon Champagne, is the only Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences-sanctioned Oscar party in Colorado. This year's festivities include red carpet arrivals, cocktail reception and dinner (either seated or buffet), a live feed of the 82nd Annual Academy Awards, a silent auction, a Predict-the-Winner's ballot contest, four floors of contemporary art, fashion by local designers, live DJ and more.
