CinemaLIC returns to Long Island City with free waterfront movies
Calling all Queens-based movie lovers: CinemaLIC is back at Hunter’s Point South Park for its ninth year this summer, and it’s bringing free outdoor film screenings with it.
Hosted by the Hunters Point Parks Conservancy, the seasonal, family-friendly film series along the Long Island City waterfront will feature four movies this year, kicking off on Thursday, July 13th with the Paul Rudd-led superhero flick Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (sponsored by Nest Seekers).
The Tom Cruise blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick will follow on Saturday, July 22nd (presented by Weill Cornell Medicine Primary Care Long Island City), with the Disney animated movie Soul to follow on Thursday, August 10 (another Nest Seekers sponsorship). All of the cinematic fun ends with another animated favorite, the 1992 classic Aladdin, on Friday, September 8, presented by Shibley Day Camp.
“The Conservancy is very excited to once again bring a series of family friendly films to the LIC Waterfront,” said Rob Basch, President of the Hunters Point Parks Conservancy. “There is nothing better than spending a summer evening at the best theater anywhere. We look forward to seeing everyone soon.”
The free movie screenings start at sunset (which is around 8:30pm these days) and are, of course, weather dependent. In fact, the series was supposed to start with a screening of Back to the Future on Thursday, June 22, but that had to be cancelled due to rain. Make sure to check out the CinemaLIC website for any weather-related updates or schedule changes prior to heading out.
Candlelight Is Glowing Strong And Spreading Its Light To New Audiences Far And Wide
Candlelight is spreading its light and love of music from major capital cities to over 150 cities and metropolitan areas in the USA—and, in total, to more than 300 cities around the world. This leap marks a monumental step in democratizing access to culture and bringing the unique live-music experience to audiences everywhere.
Candlelight is going from NYC to Long Island to Syracuse to Buffalo. It’s crossing state lines to New Jersey and Newark, and heading in every direction across the country, from Spokane and Daytona to Modesto and Anchorage. It’s even setting sail across the seas and oceans to San Juan and Hawaii. Candlelight is coming and its trademark glow of candles will be shining bright.
Captivated by the sound of their favorite music and hundreds of candles, thousands of New Yorkers and audiences around the world have paid homage to classical greats and contemporary geniuses. Now, it’s time to share the experience with everyone you know all over the country.
And just like Candlelight is reaching new cities, Candlelight’s music program continues to expand to incorporate new artists, soundtracks and genres. If you’re in NYC, take a look at the upcoming Candlelight season of concerts and treat yourself to a night out.
