This summer the Catalina Island Museum kicks off a new program: Movies at the Museum. This annual summer program highlights classic and family friendly films whose themes may be related to Catalina Island or museums in general. A few selections may include movies filmed on the island. The evening also offers an opportunity to explore the “Chihuly at the Catalina Island Museum” exhibition when the artwork is dramatically illuminated.
​
The first film is “Night at the Museum” (2006) starring Ben Stiller as a night guard for the American Museum of Natural History. This seemingly uneventful job turns out to be quite an adventure when he finds that an ancient spell has caused the “inhabitants” of the museum to come to life.

Attendees may bring their own snacks and beverages.
