When young clownfish Nemo is unexpectedly captured from Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and taken to a dentist’s office aquarium, it’s up to Marlin, his worrisome father, and Dory, a friendly but forgetful regal blue tang fish, to make the epic journey to bring him home.

Please join us with a blanket, picnic, and lawn chairs for a free family-friendly screening of Disney-Pixar’s Finding Nemo. The movie will start at dusk, with free popcorn, trivia and prizes!

This event is free and open to the public.
