Films on Foss, The Goonies Saturday, July 13th

Connecticut's premier youth-led community event is back for 2019. Disney's Princess and the Frog (2018 Fans Choice Winner) will be our first movie of the summer series and the free showing will begin at 8:30pm (or shortly after depending on the time of the sunset) but will be preceded by a community picnic that starts at 7:00pm with games and food trucks available.

Films on Foss: The Goonies (Free Event) on August 10 What is Films on Foss? The Mayoral Youth Cabinet in partnership with the City of Middletown and Wesleyan University is bringing back our wildly successful movie series called "Films on Foss". The students wanted to provide a FREE event were multiple generations could come together and build community and both the City of Middletown and Wesleyan stepped up to the plate to make this a reality.

Just as the name states, the films are shown on campus at Foss Hill, just off Wyllys Ave (for GPS purposes you can enter 45 Wyllys Ave, Middletown, CT 06457). The Mayoral Youth Cabinet is a group of teens dedicated to improving their community and building youth voice. They serve as a bridge between city leaders and youth and are engaged in various empowerment projects in conjunction with Middletown Youth Services.

A HUGE thank you to our lead sponsors, Middlesex United Way, Wesleyan University College of Film, and Eli Cannon's. ---

----The Princess and the Frog Rated G: Hardworking and ambitious, Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) dreams of one day opening the finest restaurant in New Orleans. Her dream takes a slight detour when she meets Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos), who has been turned into an amphibian by evil Dr. Facilier. Mistaking her for a princess and hoping to break the spell, Naveen plants a kiss on poor Tiana -- thereby turning her into a frog as well. The pair hop along on an adventure through the bayous to seek the help of a powerful voodoo priestess.
