Dinner and a Movie: Gene Autry Westerns
Updated May 16, 2008
This year’s Dinner and a Movie event at the Autry National Center looks at the “cowboys and presidents” connection in Gene Autry movies. Tuesdays in July, ride on over to the Autry Museum and spend a beautiful summer evening enjoying a tasty dinner, curator lead talks in the new Cowboys and Presidents exhibit, and a classic Gene Autry Western movie.
The regular cast of characters is returning to this year’s Dinner and A Movie at the Autry: Senior Curator Michael Duchemin will lead the Gene Autry gallery talks, Vice President of Gene Autry Entertainment Karla Buhlman will host the talk before the film, and of course a beautifully restored Gene Autry and Champion will grace the movie screen. Plus the Golden Spur Cafe has planned some tasty meals to kick off the evening!
