It's true that the summer sun is rising a little later and setting a little sooner, but that doesn't mean summer's over. It just means that movies in the park start a little earlier!
The Chicago Park District's answer to the drive-in movie, the "Movies in the Parks" program screens more than 170 current and classic movies in neighborhood parks throughout the city. The program runs from June-September, so there's still time to find a film to enjoy. Vist www.chicagoparkdistrict.com and search for "movies," for location and titles.
In addition to a night out in your local park, you can enjoy Chicago's Outdoor Film Festival in Grant Park! Films are shown at dusk on a giant screen at the corner of Monroe and Lake Shore Drive every Tuesday night between July 14th and August 25th. The remaining films:
- Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (July 28)
- Born Yesterday (Aug. 4)
- Psycho (Aug. 11)
- Young Mr. Lincoln (Aug. 18)
- Tootsie (Aug. 25)
