Sizzling Summer Nights at the Autry

Last night, we hit the free evenings at the Autry Museum. These Thursday nights offer free admission to the museum after 4 pm and then entertainment, food and dancing in the museum courtyard until 9pm.

The Golden Spur Cafe is open for dining either inside or out on the patio. The museum requests that you don't bring outside, but many people set up chairs and picnics on the large lawn beyond the patio. From there, you can still clearly hear the music and the kids get a big place to run and play.

These events continue each Thursday night through August. Visit the Autry Museum Web SIte for further infomation.
