Friends of Tuolumne County Film Commission will hold "Hollywood's Big
Night Gala"–a celebration of the 81st Academy Awards(R)
presentation–on Sunday, Mar. 7, 2010 at the Sonora Opera Hall. The
event is a benefit for both the non-profit film commission and the
Connections Academy, and honors outstanding film achievements in an
elegant setting.
The Friends of Film's local gala will feature a big-screen telecast of
the Academy Awards(R) presentation, a four-course dinner and wine,
plus a silent auction benefiting the nonprofit organization.
Connections Academy students will provide additional entertainment
throughout the evening. Guests will be given special ballots and will
try to win prizes by guessing which films and actors will win
Oscars(R). Prizes will also be awarded for Best Dressed Couple. The
black-tie optional event begins at 5 p.m. with a red carpet arrival
just as the Hollywood version is seen on the broadcast.

About the "Friends"
Friends of Tuolumne County Film Commission was created to help build
our local film industry by encouraging young filmmakers, building the

film history. Activities underway include acquiring a property option
to rebuild the Back to the Future III Western Set, building
relationships with the secondary and college-level film and media
programs, and raising funds for a yearly film festival. Future goals
include a soundstage facility for training and professional use and a
museum dedicated to the history of the film industry in Tuolumne
County.
