Walker Art Center announces Summer Music & Movies line up

City of Lost Children screens this summer

The Walker Art Center recently released its schedule for its popular and free Summer Music & Movies. The series pairs local bands with film screenings on the green lawn of Loring Park in downtown Minneapolis. This year's theme is "In Dreams," and draws inspiration from the dark and mysterious works featured in the museum's ongoing "Midnight Party" exhibition. So, supplement your summer with some mind-bending flicks in between those big, dumb popcorn blockbusters.

The festival will culminate with a special party on the Walker's Open Lawn featuring a screening of the German Expressionist silent-film masterpiece, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

Music each evening starts at 7 p.m. with films at dusk (approximately 8:45 p.m.). All events are free.
