Cinema Under the Stars returns for three (FREE) Fridays in August

For the first time in its 13-year history, Reynolda’s summer film series, Cinema Under the Stars, will be presented for free, thanks to the generous support of The Ginther Group of Keller Williams Realty Elite and Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation. One of the area’s original outdoor film series, Cinema Under the Stars will kick off this year on Friday, Aug. 9, 2019, with additional films being shown on Aug. 16 and 23.

Gates open at 7 p.m. each night, and the films will be shown at dark on the main lawn of Reynolda House. In case of rain, the movies will be shown in the museum’s auditorium. Food trucks will be on site, and a cash bar will be available (no outside alcohol permitted). Blankets, chairs, and well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome.
