Join us for an afternoon of fantasy/adventure films from Jim Henson: “The Dark Crystal” and “Labyrinth” shown in 35mm. Arrive when doors open to shop vendors, try themed drinks, and see more surprises!
First up and created by Muppetmasters Jim Henson and Frank Oz, “The Dark Crystal” (1982) takes audiences on a trip to the stunning and mysterious world of Thra. When an ancient crystal is shattered, the land falls under the rule of the sinister Skeksis, who drain life from the land to prolong their own existence.
After a brief intermission, stick around for “Labyrinth,” directed by Jim Henson and executive produced by George Lucas. This film stars Jennifer Connelly as Sarah and David Bowie as the mysterious Goblin King, Jareth. When Sarah, suffering from sibling rivalry, wishes her baby brother away, Jareth obliges, much to Sarah’s dismay. Her quest to get her brother back leads her through a labyrinth filled with riddles and unforgettable characters Hoggle, Ludo, and Sir Didymus.

In the spirit of collaboration and appreciation for musical brilliance, we bring you our monthly concert series — pairing tunes from legendary masters of rock, along with some unsung heroes following in their footsteps. Settle in for an intimate vibe akin to MTV Unplugged, Storytellers and Behind the Music, as singer/guitarist Kevin Spyker performs timeless hits and hidden gems, accompanied by an array of instrumentalists from the Belmar Arts music collective.
Reserve your seats for our series launch on May 18th — highlighting the music of rock icon Tom Petty, with an opening set honoring the up-and-coming band known as Dawes...each month we will tribute two different bands.
Between songs we’ll share some history and fun facts about our featured songsters.
We’re honored to name our tribute series after the memorable Dawes song / album “All Your Favorite Bands” with the anthemic refrain:
“I hope that life without a chaperone is what you thought it'd be,
I hope your brother's El Camino runs forever,
I hope the world sees the same person that you've always been to me,
And may all your favorite bands stay together!”
