What could be nicer than curling up on a blanket on the grass in the summer time? You can lie down, watch the stars in the sky, or if you’re in Delaware Park, you could watch the stars on the movie screen. The Parkside Community Association and the Buffalo Olmstead Parks Conservancy are bringing “Movies in the Meadow” to the park this summer.
The movies will be shown near the Parkside Lodge near Parkside Avenue and Florence Avenue throughout the month of July. The cost to you to watch is nothing and anyone can attend. This family-friendly event is playing three movies that the children in your lives can enjoy. It’ll be a great way to enjoy a film outside on a big screen without having to be stuck sitting in your car.
The first movie is a film that still resonates with Buffalonians. “The Natural” was shot in Buffalo in 1983 and holds a place in many Buffalonians’ hearts. It will be the first film shown on July 12 at 9 PM. The next two movies are “The Golden Compass” and “The Water Horse,” both at 9 PM on July 19 and 26, respectively.
This event is made possible with support from the M&T Charitable Foundation. You can call 838-1240 for more information or you can visit the Parkside Community Association’s website.
