Families can stay at the Arcada Theatre after the free Holiday Homecoming screening of Elf on Saturday, Nov. 28, for a holiday kick-off party. The Arcada lists a face painter and photo ops with holiday characters, with holiday treats for sale at concessions. It is free, and no RSVP or ticket is needed. The Arcada's calendar puts the start at 11:30 a.m., right after the movie.
