Open Arts Fest!
This weekend, July 21 & 22, 2012, is Boulder’s Open Arts Fest! What does that mean?
From the Downtown Boulder website: “Local artists will be joined by artists from around the country (and the world!), providing demonstrations and showcasing their work. There will be exciting children’s art activities, a silent auction benefiting OpenArts Zeff Fund for Arts Education and Ed Links – and much, much more!”
Films at the Dairy
Did you know The Dairy Center for the Arts has a film series? They show everything from classics like Citizen Kane (July 15) to just-for-fun like Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog (July 20) to the 2012 Academy Award nominee for Best Animated Feature, A Cat in Paris (July 21).
$1 Kids Movies!
Moviegoers of all ages can climb aboard the Summer Movie Express to enjoy a great selection of films. During the remainder of this 9-week festival, the Colony Square Stadium 12 movie theater in Louisville is offering G or PG rated movies for only a dollar on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at 10am.
