'Road to the Red Carpet' Rolls Out in Cleveland

CLEVELAND, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Greater Cleveland Film Commission is proud to announce the second annual "Road to the Red Carpet" Gala, a Hollywood inspired black-tie affair celebrating the 82nd Academy Awards®.  The event will take place Sunday, March 7, 2010 from 7:00 p.m.-11:00 p.m. at Pickwick and Frolic on the historic East 4th Street in Downtown Cleveland.  Tickets for the event are $150 for general admission and $250 for VIPs and can be purchased on-line at www.roadtotheredcarpet.com.

Guests will walk the red carpet straight to the lights, camera, action -- where classy cocktails, lavish hors d'oeuvres and Hollywood-inspired dishes await.

The evening boasts a silent auction where items from flamboyant to outrageous will be on display and available, an Oscar® contest, photo opportunities and our Critic's Corner. Guests will have more fun than if they were standing on the corner of Hollywood and Vine.
