The Animator’s Picnic is inspired event programming – stop all proceedings, go to a park, eat, drink, see and be seen.

Nothing like a large gathering of energetic young hipsters, free from the burdens of metabolic decline and hearing loss, to remind you just what a sorry-ass geez you are. The crowd gets younger, the walk to the Bytowne Cinema gets longer and no amount of Advil or Scotch can change that.
