Outdoor Silent Movie at Heritage Square

July 7, 2007

I got wind of this through LA City Nerd’s blog:

Heritage Square’s Silent Movie Nights
Saturday, July 7 and 21, 2007.  Beginning each night at 7 p.m.
Experience a summer night at Heritage Square Museum while watching your favorite old movies and cartoons. On Saturday. July 7, we present a showing of the celebrated “Our Gang” troop in Pigskin Palooka, a classic film released 70 years ago this year. The screening will take place on the lawn near the Palms Depot and on hand for this special screening are members from the original and supporting cast. (Movie at July 21 screening to be determined.)

The "Our Gang" Reunion and Silent Movie Night screening admission prices are free for museum members and $10.00 for the general public. Heritage Square Museum will open at 7 p.m. for picnics with the show starting at dusk. Guests are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket to sit on, picnic, and warm clothing.

I used to drive by Heritage Square when my commute took me on the 110 North, and I always wondered about this place.  It looks so weird to be where it is.  It’s a bunch of houses from California from 1850 to 1950, and a museum.  Here is a pic from www.you-are-here.com.


The screening is another picnicking opportunity!
