Movies under the Stars: Jungle Cruise
Jul 8 @ 7:00 pm
Pack Square Park

July 8: Jungle Cruise (rated PG-13 for adventure violence)

– Take a rollicking thrill-ride down the Amazon with wisecracking skipper Frank Wolff and intrepid researcher Dr. Lily Houghton. Lily travels from London, England to the Amazon jungle and enlists Frank’s questionable services to guide her downriver on La Quila–his ramshackle-but-charming boat. Lily is determined to uncover an ancient tree with unparalleled healing abilities–possessing the power to change the future of medicine. Thrust on this epic quest together, the unlikely duo encounters innumerable dangers and supernatural forces, all lurking in the deceptive beauty of the lush rainforest. But as the secrets of the lost tree unfold, the stakes reach even higher for Lily and Frank and their fate – and mankind’s – hangs in the balance

SUNDAY JULY 10 ❤
Noon to 7PM
Pack Square Park 
Free & Fun for All

A common thread runs through our planning for the July event. It’s a phrase that recurs in conversations and emails: We need this.

And, yes, we all surely do need the balm of creative outpouring, old friend hugs, new artists on the scene, high fives all around, and solidarity in crafting/making/forging a bigger creative family and a tighter community.

We miss it all and can’t wait to glory in it with you

CHOW CHOW MOVIE NIGHT: RATATOUILLE
Aug 4 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Rabbit Rabbit

Join Chow Chow at Rabbit Rabbit for a fun, free, family friendly screening of everyone’s favorite food film: Ratatouille by Disney-Pixar! A rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great chef despite his family’s wishes, and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in the sewers of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau. Remy’s passion for cooking soon sets into motion a hilarious and exciting rat race that turns the world of Paris upside down. (General admission, no tickets or reservations required. AVL Taco Truck and Rabbit Rabbit bar available for food and drinks.)
