What’s Happening in New Center?

Before you know it, the leaves will fall off and the green grass will be blanketed by snow. So, why not take advantage of the summer weather while you can and spend a day or an evening—or both—in the park?

New Center Park has several weekly events going on through September, including movies, concerts and festivals. These events are fun for all ages, and there’s something to entertain you, no matter what type of music or movies you like. And best of all, most of the events are FREE, and who doesn’t like free?!

Upcoming movies include “E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial” and “The Princess Bride.” Click here to learn more about New Center Park’s other events, and check out the video below to catch a glimpse of what you’re missing.
