Spanish term or phrase: Sección de Sociales
Traduzco una nota que habla acerca de la sección de sociales de un periódico, que es donde se publican las fotos de diversos eventos realizados durante la semana - presentaciones de libros, premieres de películas, inauguraciones de exposiciones, etc -. Lo más cercano que hallo es "Society" (me siento reacio a utilizar Society Secction porque me suena cacófono). Alguna sugerencia?

Explanation:
Como mencionas eventos de tipo cultural, y no propiamente sociales, como serían las bodas, aniversarios, etc., sugiero agregar "culture"

agree  Tara Orzolek: The NY Times uses simply Style; photos of the week's parties (including those of exhibition openings and cultural events) are located in this section. Celebrations in this context refers to those unions (e.g. for gay men) that are not, by law, weddings.
