Movies in the Park

Segundus:

'''Movies in the Park''' is a seasonal event aimed at drawing families into the Rivermarket area during the spring and summer months. It takes place at the Riverfest Amphitheater in Riverfront Park, Downtown. When weather permits, movies are shown every Wednesday night at sundown on a large screen set up in the amphitheater. The films are shown for free, and parking is provided without charge as well. Films include classics like "Casablanca" and "The Wizard of Oz," Cult films like "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Grease," and children's movies such as "Shrek" and "Toy Story Two." Participants are encouraged to come early and enjoy an entire evening out on the town. Many take advantage of the Rivermarket's wealth of restaurants, but anyone who has been to one of these events can tell you that the out-on-the-lawn atmosphere is perfect for picnicking. Concessions are available on the outskirts of the lawn, but, unlike in indoor theaters, you can also bring what you want from home (including beer and the like in moderation). These events have been very successful in creating a safe, community-oriented activity that is fun for people of all ages. Movies in the Park brings small-town into Downtown and is definitely a Wednesday night favorite once hot weather moves in.

Community Bakery

Segundus:

'''Community Bakery''' is a Little Rock café and bakery with three locations: Downtown at 1200 Main St., in the [[River Market]] at 400 President Clinton Ave., and in West Little Rock at 270 S. Shackleford Road.

Community Bakery has long been a favorite stop for Little Rockers whether they be businessmen and women grabbing breakfast on their way to the office, young hipsters feeding their cravings for caffeine, or anyone at all who knows where to find quality, fresh-baked bread. Well known for its expertise with desserts such as cheesecakes, pies, and fruit tarts, this café/bakery has sated many a sweet tooth, including that of former president, [[Bill Clinton]].

Community Bakery, however, has much more to offer than just gourmet coffee and delicious pastries. It also features an impressive lunch menu making it one of the best soup and sandwich joints in the city. As a restaurant, the bakery offers an ever-changing variety of sandwiches, wraps, paninis, and quiches (many of them vegetarian). It advertises its ''soupe du jour'' a few weeks in advance so that customers can plan ahead and come for their favorites. You will feel like you have earned an indulgent dessert after substituting your side of potato chips with one of baby carrots when you order your lunch. The restaurant also constructs box lunches and trays of fruit and cheese. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the artwork of local painters adorns the walls.

The Main Library, which is located at 100 Rock Street in the River Market District, is so named because it is the largest component of the Central Arkansas Library System. This 132,000-square-feet library has been making thousands of books, periodicals, and audiovisual resources available to people in the Little Rock area since it opened in 1997. Membership to this library system can be easily obtained, and borrowed items may be returned through any of the system’s many branches.

The library building was once the Fones Brothers Warehouse, but now, in its converted form, it is an unmistakable jewel in the downtown area. Its moldings are cast with the names of famous authors, from William Shakespeare to Dr. Seuss, and its small garden courtyard displays an impressive statue depicting the flight of Daedalus and Icarus. Various other displays and works of art can be found throughout the library.

Main Library provides wireless internet, computer courses, and a number meeting rooms to the public. It also houses the Butler Center for Arkansas Studies and the Sturgis Center for Technology Training.
