Nothing says cozy like a moviegoing experience under the stars! \ud83d\ude0e \ud83c\udf7f\n\nLast Saturday evening, @DowntownPhoenix hosted the annual PJs in the Park at Patriot's Park on the west side of CityScape (@cityscapephx), this year's event sponsor. \n\nEvery year, families gather in their coziest pajamas for an evening of holiday movies. A newly installed Jumbotron on-site, astroturf, and mobile heaters prepared by Member Pride Group (@pridegroupaz) made for an optimal screening for nearly 140 attendees. Stations for photos with Santa and festive snacks made it an evening to remember! \n\nThanks to Zee Peralta (@zee__zzz) for capturing the magic of the evening!
