Feature Focus: Brian’s picks

1) Just in time for the holiday weekend, the free Movies in the Park series will feature "The Incredibles" at 8 p.m. Saturday in Mill Race Park on Fifth Street in downtown Columbus. The animated, family-friendly film follows married superheroes Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) and Elastigirl (Holly Hunter), forced to assume mundane lives as Bob and Helen Parr after all super-powered activities have been banned by the government. Organizers remind attendees to bring a chair or blanket and snacks. The series is coordinated by Columbus Parks and Recreation Department, Donner Aquatic Center and Columbus Gymnastics Center.

2) Night Owl Country Band will play a free show at 6 p.m. Sunday at Ceraland Park’s The Landing, 3989 S. County Road 525E southeast of Columbus. The group, which plays a mix of cover tunes and originals, has built a steady following locally and even regionally and nationally. The park also is featuring local performer Ruben Guthrie on Friday.

3) JCB Fridays On Fourth continues with music from Three Beards Strummin’ and games along Fourth Street downtown on both sides of Washington Street from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday. There will be extra socially-distanced space for diners. Information: Facebook page for JCB Fridays on Fourth.
