This Friday night (Aug. 14th), starting around 8pm, prepare to put your complimentary 3D glasses on and get transported for FREE on a “Journey to the Center of the Earth,” the first of the two outdoor movies in Burien Parks’ “Music and Movies in the Park” summer series at Lake Burien School Park, SW 148th & 16th Ave SW.

This is a family-friendly 3D film starring Brendan Fraser, who has ties to the northwest – he went to Cornish School of the Arts in Seattle before hitting the bigtime in the 90s.

Here’s the film’s synopsis:

An exciting adventure based on the classic Jules Verne novel “Journey to the Center of the Earth,” Journey to the Center of the Earth stars Brendan Fraser (Crash, The Mummy) as a science professor whose untraditional hypotheses have made him the laughing stock of the academic community. But on an expedition in Iceland, he and his nephew stumble upon a major discovery that launches them on a thrilling journey deep beneath the Earth’s surface, where they travel through never-before-seen worlds and encounter a variety of unusual creatures. Journey to the Center of the Earth is directed by Academy Award-winning visual effects veteran Eric Brevig (Total Recall, Pearl Harbor) from a screenplay by Michael Weiss and Jennifer Flackett & Mark Levin.

The movie is scheduled to start at “Dusk,” which means around 8-8:30pm-ish, and viewers are asked to bring your own lawn chairs, blankets and popcorn.

But don’t worry about bringing your own 3D glasses – the fine folks at Burien Parks will be providing those!

Burien Parks’ annual “Family Fiesta” night is coming Thursday, July 16th, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at Lake Burien School Park, located at SW 146th and 16th Ave SW.

There will be music, dancing, art, food and more, and it’s a free festival.

The City of Burien is pleased to present this annual event, with performance by Evolucion Latina.

Grab your blanket and enjoy an evening fiesta of music, dance, art making, food and more! Food will be available from Los Agaves along with a fundraising snack booth from Burien’s own Paros Los Ninos.

Along with the city and Burien Parks, sponsors include 4Culture.org and BurienAutos.com.
