Mayor Marty Walsh’s Movie Nights will begin Wednesday this year and continue through September 23, according to a press release.
The initiative, which screens popular films for free in public parks throughout the city, is part of the Boston Parks and Recreation Department’s ParkARTS program. This marks its third anniversary, having begun during Walsh’s first year in office.
