And the winner is…
The 85th Academy Awards are fast approaching, and you can be in on the action if you attend the only Oscars event that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences sanctions in this entire state. This event is the United Way of Central Indiana Oscars Experience.
United Way brainstorms a new and theme each year for this event. This year, the movie Water For Elephants has inspired a circus theme. If you attend, you can expect visuals including bearded ladies, midway games, food you would expect to find at a circus, and of course the Academy Awards on multiple screens.
Besides the opportunity to take part in the silent auctions, each attendee will also leave carrying the official Academy Awards program. It will be a fun time for everyone who joins United Way for the evening. Best of all, your price of admission will go towards fundraising for the United Way education priority – that children should learn enough from kindergarten through elementary school to be at grade level in reading and math by the time they reach 6th grade.
This is all well and good, of course, but why should you order now when the Oscars aren’t for over a month yet? If you purchase your ticket from United Way prior to December 30, you’ll receive a $5 discount. To claim this discount, just use the code EARLYBIRD when you register here. Enjoy the Oscars, and know that you can watch them at United Way on the cheap if you order now.
