What started as a dream in 2005 has blossomed into a rite of passage for parents and their kids. They can shake the snow off their boots and spend an afternoon at the movies every Sunday all through January and February thanks to the generous support of the Assiniboine Credit Union. Due to the popularity of this series it is our desire that parents and their kids be seated before all others. Thanks for your understanding.

There will be will be free stop motion animation workshops offered by Art City one hour prior to all films.

Sunday, January 20 / 3 pm - Buster Keaton’s Classic Shorts

Buster Keaton has emerged as one of the era’s most admired and respected artists. Behind the deadpan expression and trademark porkpie hat was a filmmaking comic genius who conceived and engineered some of the most breathtaking stunts and feats of visual trickery.
