The weather has cleared up just in time for a free concert in Curtis Hixon Park tonight and a showing of "Despicable Me" on Saturday night in Al Lopez Park.
The Friday Extra Concert Series resumes tonight with a show by the O Som Do Jazz band. I work downtown, and I can already hear the openers (Larue Nichelson and Jeremy Powell) warming up. The show starts at 7 and goes through 9 p.m. Alcohol is not allowed, but well behaved pets are. Visit the city's website for a full concert lineup. Concerts will move to Lowry Park in May.
The Tampa Theatre will show "Despicable Me" as part of its Sunset Cinema series at Al Lopez Park on Saturday, April 2, at 8 p.m. Gates open at 6 p.m. The next showing is the new version of the "Karate Kid" on May 21, also in Al Lopez. Last year I caught "Where the Wild Things Are," as part of the series. I didn't care for the film, but the experience was fun. Just don't sit too close to the speakers.
This Sunday the Lowry Park band shell will be the setting for the Talking Animals Festival from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. There will be contests, bands, speakers on pet care, and what I'm most looking forward to ... soccer playing collies.
All three events allow you to bring your dogs! So, your pooch can enjoy Free Tampa this weekend, too.
