Love movies? So do we! Join us in our Vinton Street backyard for screenings every Saturday night and some Fridays. Movies start at sundown. Bring a blanket or a chair and bring your friends. Donations of snacks, cash, or grilling supplies will be gladly accepted… we’re not rich, but we do have surround sound! Help us enrich our community by participating in these fun weekend events!

August 2 - Futuristic Flicks, 80’s Style
Go back, way back, with Back to the Future. Follow the adventures of Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) and Dr. Emmett Brown as they drive through time. How many BTTF flicks can you stand? Find out tonight.

August 9 - Superhero Night
Come dressed as your favorite superhero and watch our screening of X-Men. Based on the comic book series, this movie features powerful mutants in cool costumes. Wear a superhero costume and be eligible to win a cool prize!

Special Friday Night Screening
August 15 - Indy Artist Night
Local filmmaker Mike Messier presents his short film Sacrilege. As host of the long-standing cable access show, The Mike Messier Show, Mike has interviewed local celebrities as well as The Suicide Girls, metal band Skid Rose, and pro wrestling cult icon The Sandman. If we’re lucky, Mike’s screening might include additional footage such as his animated film Schtick Man or some TV episodes.

August 16 - The Godfather!
Join us as we watch The Godfather. With a blockbuster cast, The Godfather chronicles the life of the Italian-American Corleone crime family. And you know the food tonight will be Italian.

August 23 - Mel’s Pick
Our roommate Melany is out of town as I’m working out this schedule, so I haven’t been able to ask her for input. Tonight is Mel’s pick. What will she choose? Stop by at sunset to find out!

Special Friday Night Screening
August 29 - Japanese Anime Night
Ryan says, “If you plan on watching in English, you will be banned from our backyard!” ‘Nuff said.

August 30 - Rocky Horror Night
It’s just a jump to the left, Janet, but it’s the pelvic thrusts that will really drive you insane. Cult classic with cabaret-style music, the Rocky Horror Picture Show is a fantastic adventure in madness, Tim Curry-style. Dress the part, and be eligible to win a most astounding prize!
