Park City Film will begin to host in-persion private screenings at the Jim Santy Auditorium after months of research, careful consideration and taking the advice of the Summit County Health Department.
The screening sessions, which have been given the green light by Park City, will be available for private groups up to 30, and will start on Friday, said Katharine Wang, Park City Film executive director.

Although adults ages 65 and over are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine, some are finding it difficult to make an appointment.
Although Ohioans ages 65 and older are eligible to get the COVID-19 vaccine, some older adults are facing significant barriers when trying to make an appointment.
Direction Home is a nonprofit that helps older adults make long-term care choices. The number of calls they receive about vaccines has tripled in the past few weeks. Matt Reed, senior vice president of communications and administration, says many callers are older adults who don’t have access to internet and are struggling to make an appointment.
Summit County says it has invited everyone who lives locally and is 70 or older to schedule a vaccination appointment. There are more than 2,000 appointments scheduled, stretching into late March.
Vacancy or vibrancy?
With all the (albeit necessary) talk about affordable housing in Park City, let’s not forget the lack of affordable office, showroom, and warehouse space for businesses in the city and county. As a small-business owner based in Park City in the hope of capitalizing on the great consumer base, I’ve been forced to face the fact that I may have to look outside of Summit County for an office. The going lease rate for a commercial space in Park City is around $3,800 per month, which, especially for a new business, can be the biggest hurdle to starting out.

Chop Shop at the Newpark Town Center gives local meat lovers a sumptuous reason to rejoice.
The 1,700-square-foot space, located at 1177 Center Drive, offers an array of beef, pork, lamb and poultry, and a variety of local cheeses and charcuterie options in an European-style deli setting.
The endeavor, which features three dry/aging units and a wood-fired oven, is the brainchild of partners Chuck Heath, Dan Ibach and butcher John Courtney, who met in Las Vegas during one of the city’s food-truck cook-offs, known as House Brawls, according to Courtney.
“These late-night competitions were held eight to 10 times a year where chefs battle it out for charity,” said Courtney, who won the event twice in a row. “The last time we did it, Dan and Chuck happened to be there, and I met them briefly.”
