Sunset on the Square has been a summertime event geared towards local families and tourists alike for nine years. The free family-based community event features movies on a giant outdoor movie screen under the stars in the heart of St. George at Town Square Park. Every event features booths, food, face painting, lots of prizes, and dancing before the movie starts. Every second and fourth Friday of the month through Aug. 26, Sunset on the Square will feature exciting themes and lots of extras.
On Friday, June 24, the theme for Sunset on the Square is “Get Engaged.”
“Nonprofit Night is one of my favorite events of the season!” exclaimed event coordinator Dawn McLain. “St. George offers the highest quality of life nationally. The fact is, we truly are the best place to live, thanks in part to the many great programs supporting our area. This is our way to recognize and celebrate their efforts and dedication.”
