Annual Picnic and Family Movie Night, Princeton University Art Museum

Thursday July 28, 2022
6:00 PM

Celebrate summer with the Museum at our annual picnic on the lawn. Enjoy barbecue fare, live music, and family-friendly activities. Cosponsored by the Princeton YMCA. Stay until sunset for family movie night featuring Disney’s Fantasia. Released in 1940, it represented Walt Disney's boldest experiment to date, bringing to life his vision of blending animated imagery with classical music. What had begun as a vehicle to enhance Mickey Mouse's career blossomed into a full-blown feature that remains unique in the history of animation

. Be sure to bring a blanket or chair—we'll provide the popcorn! In the event of rain, the picnic will be held in Frist Campus Center Multipurpose Rooms and the film will be shown on Tuesday, August 2, on Alexander Beach.
