Inwood Art Works is delighted to announce the third season of its FREE outdoor summer cinema series, Film Works Alfresco!
This curated film series focuses on presenting independent and popular films with local relevance that culturally resonate with the Northern Manhattan community. Film Works Alfresco expands public access to professional filmmaking in Northern Manhattan, and presents as diverse an array of films as the community it serves. In addition, it is the only free outdoor English and Spanish language cinema series in New York City!
Eleven free screenings will occur consecutively every Monday evening at dusk at Gaelic Field in Inwood Hill Park from June through August. Plus, we have incredible local pre-show entertainment and classes lined up before for each screening. So make plans to bring a picnic and come enjoy the show before the show all summer long!
Join us every Monday this summer!
