Everything on the list is free, though Prospect Park would prefer that you donate $3. The start time of the movies is always "dusk," or sometimes even "dark," a time that changes as the Earth goes through its orbit.
This list is totally arbitrary and selective. Except the movies...all the movies are listed. Except Bryant Park, that is a mob scene. For more concerts, information, and directions, look into the links below:
