Charlie Brown, Garfield and ‘A Trip to the Moon’

Houma’s Memorial Park is the place to be Friday, Oct. 26, for outdoor Halloween fun.

The Houma Regional Arts Council is presenting a trio of movies fit for the occasion. Starting at 8:30 p.m., immediately following the Halloween parade, the family-friendly movies will roll.

“It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,” “Garfield’s Halloween Adventure” and “A Trip to the Moon” will play on the outdoor screen.

The “Charlie Brown” classic and “Garfield” animated special are Halloween staples. “A Trip to the Moon” or “Le Voyage dans la lune” as the French say, is a black and white science fiction film loosely based on “From the Earth to the Moon” by Jules Verne and “The First Men in the Moon” by H.G. Wells.

Movie-goers are invited to dress in costume.

Seating will be available on the park amphitheatre steps, and the public can bring lawn-chairs.

In the event of bad weather, the event date may be changed. For the latest information, call 873-6367.
