The community voted for their favorite titles on the Plains Art Museum Facebook page, and these were our winners!

Scary film (10pm): "Little Shop of Horrors" (1986)

Art activities will kick off the evening with first movie beginning at sundown. Popcorn, drinks, hand sanitizer and bug spray will be provided. You are welcome to bring your own snacks, blankets/chairs and fuzzy friends as well!

In the case of poor weather, the event will move to the Plains Art Museum.
