The Derek Gores Gallery will host a pre-party for the Melbourne Independent Filmmakers Festival on Oct. 8 from 7 to 11 p.m. In keeping with the theme of Dynamic Duos, you get in free if you’re wearing a costume. There will be a costume contest, with prizes! If you just want to watch, the $10 cover includes lots of entertainment and fun.

The Blast-Offs, the fantastic rockabilly trio who did the soundtrack for the festival movie “Bubba the Redneck Werewolf,” will perform, along with Monday’s Mona Lisa. Aaron Collins, conductor of the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra – which will be playing original soundtracks for silent short films at the festival – will speak about film and music.
