FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What time do the Summer Film Series movies start?

We start our movies as soon as it's dark enough to see the picture clearly. This changes throughout the summer from around 9pm for our first film in June to around 7:30pm by our last film of the season in September.

Where do you screen the Summer Film Series movies?

We screen our films outside in Dockside Park on the Hudson River, at the end of West Street in Cold Spring, NY.

Can we bring chairs?

Yes, you can bring your own folding chairs to the screenings if you like. Chairs must be placed either on the side or in the rear, though, so that attendants on blankets can also watch the movie.

Can we bring our own food?

Yes. We sell fresh popcorn, lemonade and candy at the event, but you are welcome to bring your own picnic and drinks. Please remember to remove your trash at the end of the film.

Can I bring my dog?

Pets are welcome as long as they are leashed, cleaned up after properly, and their owner respects our other moviegoers' viewing experience.

Why do you ask for donations?

It costs us thousands of dollars a year to pay for the licensing of our films, publicity, and other regular operating costs. We are a small, local non-profit run by members of the community and need your donations to help keep this free film series operating.

Are my donations tax-deductible?

Yes, they should be! We are a registered 501 (c)3 non-profit corporation and so your donation should typically be tax-deductible. However, please consult your own tax pro for confirmation of your individual situation.

Where can I get your amazing t-shirts and tote bags?

Our distinctively designed canvas bags and T-shirts are available for purchase at all our screenings!
