Movies By Moonlight Start Aug. 18 In Sandy Springs

SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- The summer is settling in to Sandy Springs, which means residents and stakeholders behind the popular Movies By Moonlight series are preparing to launch the lineup for the 2017 event.

Leadership Sandy Springs' annual family friendly summer gathering is a free, outdoor movie event for the entire community, featuring a large screen, vendors, food trucks, inflatable bounce houses and other activities for children.

Movies By Moonlight will be held on three Fridays in August and September from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Sandy Springs United Methodist Church's Activity Center lawn, which is across the street from the church.

Kicking off the series will be "Moana" on Aug. 18. That showing will be followed by "Lego Batman" on Aug. 25, and "Beauty and the Beast" will round out the 2017 lineup on Sept. 8. Movies will begin around dusk.

Food trucks and other vendors will be announced in July. Residents are more than welcome to bring blankets, beach chairs and your group of family and friends to take part in this community event. Please note that pets are not allowed at Movies By Moonlight.

The church lawn is located at 85 Mt. Vernon Highway NW in Sandy Springs. For more information or questions, contact Anne Boatwright at anne@leadershipsandysprings.org or visit the Movies By Moonlight Facebook page.
