Taylorville Memorial Hospital is partnering with several local organizations to bring the community together for a night of entertainment and mental health awareness.

The Movie in the Park event is set for Saturday, May 30th, at Manners Park in Taylorville. Activities will begin at 7 PM, and the movie will start at sunset. Attendance at movie night is free of charge.

Families can enjoy a screening of the Disney-Pixar film Inside Out, which explores emotions and mental well-being in a way that’s accessible for all ages.

Organizers say the goal of the event is to create a relaxed, welcoming space where families can have fun while also opening the door to important conversations about mental health.

Jay Boulanger, a community health consultant with Taylorville Memorial Hospital, says the evening is designed to bring people together in a positive environment while raising awareness about emotional wellness.

Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets for seating. Free popcorn will be available, and the park’s concession stand will also be open.

The event is free and open to the public, with no registration required.

In addition to Taylorville Memorial Hospital, sponsors include the Taylorville Park District, Memorial Behavioral Health, the Christian County Health Department, and the Christian County Prevention Coalition.
