AOF Activities & Events

AOF/RC Free Movie Nights, you may know, are an ongoing collaboration of Reason Center (RC) and AOF, within the scope of an excellent MPLC License. Unfortunately the License prohibits us from announcing the movie title. Frustrating. But we can hint.

In this case it's a 2009 historical drama/documentary about Hypatia, mathematician, philosopher and astronomer in late 4th-century Roman Egypt, who challenges the emerging Christian church and comes to a sad end for her freethinking ways. Can't guess? Your best bet then is to contact Reason Center (see contact info below). They'll tell you, then you can tell anyone.

The Movie Night is an informal, picnic-style family event. The venue has a huge silver screen and a dynamic sound system. Chairs are available but may be a bit uncozy for a two-hour sit, so it's OK to bring blankets, pillows, lawn chairs and your own snacks & beverage, non-alcoholic please. RC may provide fluffy, buttery theater popcorn. Children are welcome if they're cool children -- and if you judge the movie appropriate for tender eyes & ears. (Also, remember: the taller your personal chair, the further back you will sit.)

The movies are especially for Reason Center members, but non-members are welcome too. RC may beg a small donation to cover costs. How can you become a Reason Center member? Sign up at http://reasoncenter.com/donate/. Membership is a measly $4 a month, is tax deductible if you itemize, and the perks (like this one) will fall to you like warm spring rain.
