If you’re still clinging to the idea of summer, then you’ll be glad to know you have one more chance to enjoy an outdoor movie at Civic Square.
The final screening in the city’s movie series is tomorrow (Thursday, Aug. 31), and it’s the family-friendly Toy Story. Movies run from about 8:30 to 10 p.m., and you can bring your own blanket to join in the fun, rain or shine. It’s free. Call 604-297-4572, or just turn out at Civic Square (at the corner of Kingsborough and McKay) to check it out.
Family movie matinee
Here’s one more option for the film fans out there: Burnaby Public Library has one more family movie screening to help tide you over for the final week of summer vacation.
Disney’s Tangled: Before Ever After is screening at the Tommy Douglas library branch (7311 Kingsway) tomorrow (Thursday, Aug. 31) at 1 p.m.
The movie is designed for kids aged five and up, and caregivers must accompany all children aged 10 and under. No registration is needed, but space is limited, so turn out early.
Choral auditions
Here’s one for all the choral singers out there. If you’re an experienced and well-trained singer, you may want to check out the upcoming auditions for the Vancouver Chamber Choir.
