The days are getting shorter, which means it’s time for outdoor movies! Join BCA and BPRW for Fall Flicks in The Park! On three Fridays this September, we’ll project fun family films on our new large screen in Water Works Park, located near the Moran Plant on the waterfront. Shows start at 7:15pm and are all ages and free. Why not bundle up, bring a blanket and join us for some Fall Flicks? We’ll see you there!

The back sections are ideal for couples in chairs. The grass and front seats are ideal for groups. Bring your own chairs and blankets to be comfortable.
