From outdoor movie nights and exclusive culinary tours to art walks and wellness activities, it looks like the forecast is calling for a hot summer season full of fun, food, and festivities.

Movies in the Park: Celebrating the Fiercest Female Leads

Every Wednesday evening, David Pecaut Square transforms into an outdoor cinema with the return of the popular Movies in the Park series. Featuring iconic films that celebrate fierce, fabulous female characters, it's the perfect way to spend a summer night. The best part: it's free! Just bring your friends and something comfy to sit on. Arrive by 8:30 p.m.; movies will start once the sun has fully set.

  •   July 10: Clueless – Hang out with Cher Horowitz (Alicia Silverstone) and her Beverly Hills squad in this 90s classic.

  •   July 17: Mean Girls – Watch the Plastics rule the school with Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) navigating the wild world of high school.

"That's so fetch!" Gretchen Wieners would be proud of this summer lineup – and it's actually happening!
