And here's another event your kid might really enjoy:
Harrod Blank has made a new documentary about art cars which he will be showing at the Clinton St. Theatre in SE on Sunday at 7PM. (It will also be showing tonight at 9PM for you families of night owls!) He will discuss the film, and locals will be there to show off their art cars! Adults are $6 and kids under 12 are $3. I went to a similar event when he released an earlier film on this topic and it was a lot of fun. More info here: http://www.clintonsttheater.com/
