Bring your family & friends and your favorite movie snack to Downtown Mocksville for a free outdoor showing of Peter Rabbit, Friday, May 24th. The movie will begin at 8:30 p.m. at the new downtown park on Main St.

Peter Rabbit and his three sisters — Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-Tail — enjoy spending their days in Mr. McGregor’s vegetable garden. When one of McGregor’s relatives suddenly moves in, he’s less than thrilled to discover a family of rabbits in his new home. A battle of wills soon breaks out as the new owner hatches scheme after scheme to get rid of Peter — a resourceful rabbit who proves to be a worthy and wily opponent.
A parent or guardian is required to stay with children during the movie.
Mocksville Movies in the Park are sponsored by the Davie County Library and the Town of Mocksville.
For more information, contact Tami Langdon at 336-753-6705 or tlangdon@mocksvillenc.gov.
