Statehouse lawn added as venue

In addition to showing films this summer on the Ohio State University campus, the Wexner Center for the Arts will bring its popular outdoor movie series Downtown for an Aug. 28 screening on the Statehouse lawn.
“We’ve had a lot of experience showing movies outside,” said Wexner film and video curator David Filipi, “so we were asked to put something together.”
The film at the Aug. 28 screening will be The Talk of the Town, a 1942 romantic comedy with political elements. Cary Grant stars as a political activist who is falsely convicted of setting a warehouse fire that kills a foreman.
Before the Statehouse screening, the Wexner Center will show three other features on the center’s plaza at 15th Avenue and N. High Street.

Good for Wexner and the city.
I’m all for it. Is the Wexner Center bringing their own screen? I thought they (not Wexner, but somebody) tried something like this before, but used the screen that’s on the SW corner of High and State. It didn’t seem to me like that would be big enough to work well.
