With the return of summer comes the next wave of Sunset Cinema! Our free outdoor film series features a diverse lineup of recent hits, perfect for viewing under the stars.


On August 15, Stanley Kubrick’s magnum opus takes us on a breathtaking voyage to discover our place in the universe. In the year 2001, when a massive black object is discovered on the face of the moon, astronauts Dave Bowman (Keir Dullea) and Frank Poole (Gary Lockwood) are sent on an exploratory mission to Jupiter to seek its origin. In the far reaches of space, they unlock untold secrets about humankind’s origins—and our collective destiny.


The film begins at sundown, around 8 pm. Lawn games and art-making activities begin at 6:30 pm. Bring a blanket or low chair (maximum 3 feet high), a picnic supper, and nonalcoholic beverages to enjoy during the film. Beer, wine, and snacks are available for purchase. Seating is limited; arrive early to guarantee your spot.
