Dogs Welcome – Cinema Screening for You and Your Dog!

Now call me crazy but I was actually wondering to myself just the other day how would it be to have a dog friendly cinema – well, this coming weekend I’ll be able to find out!
A community project in Victoria park and the Chisenhale Gallery is holding a public film screening for Dogs and Humans this Saturday 19th November. I found this out through the lovely Louise her blog for her company The Darling Dog Company

These are the details:

Chisenhale Gallery’s first artist-in-residence in Victoria Park, Matthew Noel-Tod, invites you to a day of film screenings for dogs and humans held in Victoria Park and at Chisenhale Gallery. Dogs welcome at both events.
