Open Air Cinema in Utica Prepares for Season Opener
The Open Air Cinema in Utica has just kicked off their first outdoor movie series and we would like to wish them the best of luck. The first movie featured will be James Cameron's record-breaking hit Avatar, and screenings will continue in select parks within Utica throughout the Summer season.
"It's a concept that is going around the country," Mayor Roefaro said. "It gives our residents something to do at night time. They come out, they bring long blankets and sleeping bags, or whatever they're gonna have, and they can sit there and watch a movie outside. It's really a great concept."
There will also be food vendors on hand at all Open Air Cinema events, adding to what Mayor David Roefaro said will be a fun evening for families withing Utica. Outdoor movies will be screened in Utica every Wednesday, except for the first screening which will be held on Thursday, July 22, 2010 at the Seymour Park in North Utica. Other screenings scheduled this Summer are:
- Wednesday, July 28 at Johnson Street Park
- Wednesday, August 4 at Addison Miller Park
- Wednesday, August 18 at the Parkway Recreation Center
