I love a good outdoor screening, so when I saw National Harbor announced the return of its popular Movies on the Potomac series, May 1–Sept. 30, every Thursday at 7 p.m., “date night,” and every Sunday at 6 p.m. for “family night,” I had to share!
The Plaza Screen on the waterfront will show recent releases and classic films, and attendees can bring chairs and order take-out from one of the many surrounding restaurants. All screenings are free to attend.
