Throw on your best Sunday-afternoon-at-a-trendy-art-gallery outfit and help deserving kids in the meantime:  it’s a charity event for Kid Flicks! Kid Flicks, an organization dedicated to helping ease the stress of hospitalized children, is the beneficiary of an event hosted at Le Basse art gallery in Culver City’s art district on May 31, 2009 from 2-5 p.m.  Kid Flicks donates new and gently used DVDs to hospitals around the country to give children undergoing chemotherapy and other medical treatments some entertainment.  For just a little while, these kids are able to sit back, laugh and enjoy the movie rather than think about their illnesses.  It’s truly an amazing cause.  Come to see world-class art, sip Opulent Vodka and Red Bull, enjoy tasty edibles provided by Sweets for the Soul and TheFoodieCutie.com, Los Angeles’ newest culinary review blog, and enter to win a fabulous gift bag loaded with items from Renee Vintage Designs, Solas Fashion, West Valley Playhouse, American Drifter and more.  Other sponsorship provided by JKAZZ.   The entrance fee for the event is $5 or a kid-friendly (G, PG or PG-13) DVD.  Those who donate $25 or more will be entered to win the gift bag (valued at approximately $300!).  How can you go wrong?  Clear your calendars on May 31 and clean out your DVD collection – it’s charity event season.   If you would like to donate but are unable to attend this event, please contact Kid Flicks.   ### By Angie Rupert, www.LuckyMarketingFirm.com
