Are you going? Tickets are still available!
The winner of, say, the Oscar for best actress won't be the only contest at stake at this year's "Highmark Presents Lights! Glamour! Action!" party.
A poster for "The Dark Knight Rises" autographed by director Christopher Nolan along with actors Gary Oldman, Marion Cotillard, Anne Hathaway and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is among the nearly 150 items partygoers can bid on at the Feb. 26 gala.
The mix of entertainment, sports, Pittsburgh and pampering prizes includes two tickets to a summer Poison concert, the chance to watch the show from the side of the stage and to meet Bret Michaels.
Both of those items carry hefty minimum bids, but partygoers can bid on a copy of the book "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" autographed by writer-director Stephen Chbosky along with stars Emma Watson, Ezra Miller, Logan Lerman, Nina Dobrev and others.
A collection of T-shirts and posters from "Abduction" ($25 minimum bid) will be on the block along with an autographed script for "The Good Wife," a collection of DVDs signed by Denzel Washington, along with two seats from the Civic Arena, a Hines Ward autographed football, Steelers tickets, a trip to Walt Disney World and a "Dancing With the Stars" VIP experience.
The 12th annual Oscar party, a main source of support for the Pittsburgh Film Office, will be held at Heinz Field. The telecast will be streamed live on a big screen at the event, which is black tie optional.
Tickets, still available, are $250 per person and include entry at 6 p.m., a VIP champagne reception and valet parking; $125 gala ticket provides admission at 7:30 p.m.; and Oscar tickets, $75 if six or more ordered, with admission also at 7:30 p.m. The gala will feature food stations, a bar and live music.
To order or for more information, call the film office at 412-261-2744 or go to www.pghfilm.org.
Honorary event co-chairs are Dr. Tony G. Farah, president and CEO, WPAHS Physicians Organization, and his wife, Dr. Katie Farah. The film office, which is coming off the biggest year in its 22-year history, markets the 10-county southwestern Pennsylvania region to Hollywood.
