Adams Morgan Movie Nights returns May 15 for our 5th season!

We'll be returning to the soccer field at Marie Reed School this year with a great lineup of films and some other fun stuff you won't want to miss.

We'll once again be partnering with the Marie Reed PTA to sell snacks and will also be working with Adams Morgan businesses to offer "Movie Meals" packaged to take with you to the show. In addition, we're working on a Doggy Valet program with Life of Riley to allow your pooch a night out with some of his/her friends while you're enjoying the movie. Watch our Facebook page for more details on all of the above, and of course rainout information just in case.

So without further ado, this year's schedule:

• May 15: Pixar Shorts collection (Featuring a selection of Pixar’s short films ranging from some of their earliest, groundbreaking work to more contemporary shorts)
• May 22: The Big Lebowski (1998)
• May 29: Hairspray (2007)
• June 5: Jackie (2016)
• June 12: Hidden Figures (2016)

Adams Morgan Movie Nights are sponsored by the Adams Morgan Partnership BID , WETA and Mill Creek Residential , and supported by Insomnia Cookies , Life of Riley , the Marie Reed Elementary School PTA , and neighborhood volunteers.

Dinner at the Movies

We’re bringing hundreds of hungry customers to Adams Morgan Movie Nights every Tuesday night from May 15 through June 12.

Dozens of Adams Morgan restaurants are just steps away from the Marie Reed School where Adams Morgan Movie Nights take place. Provide take-out meals or discounts for hundreds of movie-goers to bring to the field with them.

Participating businesses will be included in on our website and in social media posts leading up to the movie each week.

Meals should be:

• Easily portable
• Come with napkins & disposable utensils if needed
• Either quick to serve or able to be reserved in advance
• Option to include a beverage

To sign up or for more information, contact Brian Barrie via email or at (202) 536-9515 by May 8.
