We have a sentimental attachment to the annual IS 183 costume ball: It was the first event we covered “live” for Rural Intelligence so we think of it as our anniversary party, too. While this year’s dance party on March 6 has a theme—Radioactive Bodega—that is somewhat puzzling, it is also a challenge that should make it just a visually stunning and amusing as Rock the Opera in 2008 (left) and the Hair Ball in 2009. If you like to dress up in a more conventionally glamorous way, the Berkshire International Film Festival is having a “Red Carpet” Academy Awards party at the Beacon Cinema on Sunday March 7. With the Beacon’s high definition screens, you’ll be able to analyze every borrowed diamond necklace and beaded dress in a way that you can’t at home, and you’ll have a crowd to gossip with over drinks and dinner all evening long.
