Dinner and a Movie: Gene Autry Westerns
Posted July 2005

   

Champion and Gene from Home on the Prairie

Gene Autry Entertainment and the Autry National Center have planned a few get-togethers for the summer and you are invited!

Every Thursday evening in July, you can corral the kids in the car and roam on over to the Autry Museum because Gene is back in the saddle again with Champion! Spend a beautiful summer evening enjoying an outdoor BBQ, gallery talks, and classic Gene Autry Westerns. Take advantage of the whole package: dine al fresco, tour the galleries, and then kick back and watch the famous Singing Cowboy on the silverscreen. Or shop in the Museum Store and enjoy the Museum of the American West—admission is free after 4 PM—and then join us for the movie. Perhaps you just want to savor the delicious BBQ and watch a sunset in Griffith Park. There is something for every taste at this summer event.
