The story behind the Alties: Whereas Hollywood caters to "Celebrity Culture", the Alties advocates "Participatory Culture" where there are no VIP areas, where the velvet rope is open to anyone who makes an effort and where drinks and food are affordable to all. We enjoy the style of the Oscars and pay homage to all the actors and filmakers but with our own New York City attitude! This Alties occurred from 2006-2008, we took a break in 2009 to host an Inaugural Ball, and are now re-launching this event for the new decade.
About Costume Cultural Society: CCS advocates costuming and participatory artforms and is the parent entity for the Kostume Kult arts collective. CCS is a fiscally sponsored program of the non-profit association Fractured Atlas and has been the primary producer of this event since 2006 working closely with the Action Arts League non-profit association. In 2011 and beyond, CCS plans to grow this event as a fund-raiser for multiple arts non-profits including Action Arts League and others who will be joining us on March 7th.

Inspiration???? The past year as been a spectacular time for film with many costumey options available from:
Avatar Alice In Wonderland (Tim Burton!) Comes out 2 days before Alties! Bruno (lederhosen!) Sherlock Holmes District 9 Where the Wild Things Are (trolls!) The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (Terry Gilliam film) Fantastic Mr. Fox Coraline "9" (animated post-apocalypse) Nine (showgirl glamour) Up Star Trek Land of the Lost (sleestak!) Night at the Museum 2 Terminator 4 Transformers Harry Potter Whip It (roller girls!) The Watchman The Wolfman Twilight (vampires!) Zombieland
Or you can be a character from any historical film, a pop-culture icon or pretty much anything else that is glamorous or fun! All are welcome at the Alties!
