Grab a blanket and come enjoy a movie in your neighborhood park! This summer, NYC Parks will host movie showings across the five boroughs!

Join us to celebrate Juneteenth with a special screening. In partnership with the Public Theater and THIRTEEN, we will screen Shakespeare’s comedy from the Public Theater’s Shakespeare in the Park set in South Harlem telling the story of the trickster Falstaff and the wily wives who outwit him in a celebration of Black joy, laughter, and vitality.

Movies begin at dusk. This event is FREE and open to the public. In the event of heavy rain or extreme weather, the screening may be canceled. The decision to cancel the event will be made prior to the screening and will be prominently posted on our website.
