New York, New York-Independent Pictures, the premiere resource for
independent filmmakers in Northeast Ohio and presenter of the annual
Ohio Independent Film Festival, will host a New York City film
industry networking party the week of the IFP Market, the first and
longest running market for American independent film.

The Independent Pictures mixer will be at Plaid, 76 East 13th Street
between Broadway and 4th Avenue, September 24th, from 8-11p. The
fabulous Plaid feels like an old-school Cuban lounge crossed with
Willy Wonka-like designs. Co-Artistic Directors Annetta Marion and
Bernadette Gillota will be on hand with information about the
November film festival and Independent Pictures' additional programs.
Mention Independent Pictures to get in the door. There will be a
cash bar.
