Friday Night: "Steel Magnolias" in Goodale Park with Nina West













Screen on the Green: Steel Magnolias
FRIDAY, Aug. 17th, 8pm @Goodale Park


Tomorrow evening "Steel Magnolias" takes center stage at Goodale Park as legendary Hollywood divas, including Dolly Parton, Sally Field, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis, Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts highlight the funny and more riduclous sides of life as middle-aged women in the South.
 
Columbus' own diva, the always fabulous NINA WEST, will be our guest emcee to entertain the audience with contests and trivia questions beforehand along with her own colorful flair and bubbling personality. 


The movie begins at sundown on a 30-foot screen at the softball diamond in the Southwest corner of the park, and will be preceded by a half hour of classic cartoons.  Tweet And Go Seek will host a scavenger hunt in the park before the film. Those who find the tiles will win prizes from local businesses. Follow @tweetandgoseek on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for details.

Food trucks will sell refreshments, as organized by Food Fort Columbus.  Remember to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and flashlights.  There are no rain dates.  Screen on the Green is made possible through organization and major funding by the Short North Civic Association, with additional funding by the Short North Foundation, Gateway Film Center and ComFest.
 

We're also showing "The Sound of Music" on Sept. 21st.  More information can be found online at:
