Films at Liberty Park and special outdoor screenings
Are you ready for summer fun in the sun? Utah Film Center is ready to rock into the warmer weather with films at Liberty Park! Join us for a deep dive into riding whitewater in the world’s deepest canyon, a fearless shell looking for a home, comic book nerds looking for love, and an Australian environmentalist with a big heart and a bigger fishy friend. We’re also exploring the magic of cinema, legendary rock and soul icons, and two volcanologists and a breakdance crew that are hotter than St. George in August.
RSVP now to the summer lineup!
