THE LINEUP

4PM: Night at the Museum (2006)

PG, 1 h48m

A newly recruited night security guard at the Museum of Natural History discovers that an ancient curse causes the animals and exhibits on display to come to life and wreak havoc.

During the movie, join A Rosie Day to create a 'Living Portrait.' Participants will first construct and decorate their own picture frames using large sheets of cardboard and various art supplies such as paint, markers, glitter, fabric scraps, and glue. Once the frames are complete, individuals will pose within their frames as if they are a historical figure, a famous painting, or a museum exhibit that has come to life. An instant camera will be used to take a Polaroid photograph of each participant in their pose.

6 PM: '80s tunes by DJ Honey Cafe

7 PM: Big (1988)

PG, 1 h44m

A down-on-his-luck dad gets a job where he has to babysit historical figures who come alive at night, mostly because of a magical tablet from a guy who just wants to chill in his sarcophagus.

Plus: Drinks from Other Half Brewing & Snacks from Roni-Sue's
