You want to get closer to the Academy Awards action than your friend’s couch but those screaming crowds?  Forget it. 

Instead, monitor the red carpet action in  a dry martini and a cocktail frock at the VIP Police Activities League (PAL) Benefit at the Hollywood Museum (right down the street from the Kodak Theater).   The price  includes  cocktails, appetizers, buffet dinner, dessert, and access  to the award-winning Hollywood Museum’s  thousands of exhibits including  the costumes from Avatar and the infamous Chamber of Horrors.

Non-profit PAL raises money for sports programs for at-risk youth so you can get a warm and cozy glow over more than your winning Best Picture pick and the glimpse of Brangelina.
