The Roger Williams Park Conservancy is excited to present Movies in the Park 2018! These FREE events take place on Friday evenings at sunset on the Boathouse Lawn (across from the Carousel Village), following Food Truck Friday; see a Park map.

Presented in partnership with the Providence Children’s Film Festival, all events start with a selection of short films and will last approximately 2 hours.

Movies in the Park 2018 schedule:

July 20          Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Charlie, a poor but hopeful boy, seeks one of five coveted golden tickets for a tour of Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory – a mind-bending world of pure imagination.

August 3        Landfill Harmonic (2015)
A film about the transformative power of music, Landfill Harmonic shares the true story of an unlikely orchestra: a garbage picker, a music teacher and a group of children from Paraguay who play instruments made from repurposed junk.

August 17      The Muppets (2011)
When three Muppet fans learn that a greedy oil mogul wants to drill under the Muppet Theater, they set out to regroup the Muppets and put on one last show to save the theater.
