Welcome Week Student Party and Film 2011

Tour our three new exhibitions, enjoy free pizza, meet new people, and stick around for a free outdoor movie, at this free party. It kicks off at 7 PM with DJ Sets by George Brazil (Wax Jam, Flirt!) and DJ Carol (Trou De Loup).

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, based on the acclaimed comic by Bryan Lee O’Malley, screens at dusk (about 8:30 PM), Wex Drive-In style, on the Wexner Center plaza. Michael Cera stars as a hipster musician from Toronto who must defeat an aloof American girl’s seven former boyfriends in order to win her affection. The hilariously reflexive mash-up of contemporary culture—video games, indie music, movies, veganism—became a cult film almost overnight. Featuring the music of Beck, Metric, the Black Lips, T-Rex, Frank Black, and more. In the event of rain, the movie will be inside Mershon Auditorium at 8:30 PM. (112 mins., 35mm)

Presented collaboratively by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and First Year Experience and the Wexner Center.
