august is member month!

August is always Member Month here at FilmScene - a time when we show our current members extra love AND work even harder to inspire more of our neighbors to become members.

Here are just some reasons why you might want to join us as a member this Member Month:
WIN DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY

Daily wheel spins at special member month screenings, weekly giveaway drawings, and one grand prize giveaway of a private rental for you and 50 friends! There’s the chance to win every single day in August, for current members as well as anyone who joins as a member this month!

SAVE AT THE MOVIES

Members save money at the movies - $5 off general price admission, $1 off concessions (yes, every item including beer & wine!), and 20% off merchandise, private rentals, and Refocus Film Festival passes. 

You can get EVEN MORE benefits at our higher levels - like free popcorn and no online ticket fees at the Supporting Role ($300) level and free movies for you and your family at the Screen Legend ($1,200) level. 

All levels are fully or partially tax deductible!

POWER THE MOVIES

Generous support from FilmScene members accounts for about 30 percent of our organizational budget each year.

YOUR generosity makes it possible to live out our mission to “challenge, inspire, educate, and entertain our diverse communities through the shared discovery of film,” with programs like our free FilmScene in the Park summer series, our long-running monthly family series The Picture Show, and our newly-established annual Iowa Disability Film Festival.

ENJOY WORLD CLASS CINEMA

Thanks to our members, we’re able to show more than 500 different films each year, including new releases, cult classics, repertory favorites, underseen gems, and much, much more! Every day at FilmScene, you have the opportunity to be challenged, to be inspired, to be educated, and to be entertained. 

This Member Month, we’re highlighting some of the iconic women featured in Alfred Hitchcock’s films with Hitch Girl Summer.
