About Us

We live near Dolores Park, and want to make the most of our beautiful little neighborhood. Dolores Park Movie Night has no affiliations, no causes, no politics and minimal organization. We pay for permits, movie licences, and equipment ourselves and only ask for small donations to cover recurring costs. Dolores Park Movie Night is our small contribution to the local community.

Our ranks include a Mad Scientist, a Computer Geek, a couple of Hot Lawyer Babes, our Fearless Leader, and of course our Always Hungry "Will Love You For Food" Mascot.

"We need your help!"
How do we pay for all this?

We get no funding from any source except from you the Movie Night participant. Donations and popcorn sales have to cover all our costs, which include movie rights, city permits, Valet Bike Parking, porta potties, and equipment. Please help us out so we can keep this event going.

And besides, you'd rather be at Movie Night than pay $10.50 for that crappy Brad Pitt movie, right?
