Beat the Heat for Douglas County Libraries at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema

June 5, 2019

Families looking for an affordable way to beat the heat this month and give back in their community can celebrate! The Kids Camp film series is now showing at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in Littleton and offers pick-your-price admission ($1, $3, or $5), with all ticket sales in June benefiting the Douglas County Libraries (DCL) Foundation. 

Kids Camp showings take place weekdays at 11:00 AM, offering family-friendly fare for kids. The PG-rated films in June include Trolls (June 3-7), Shrek (June 10-14), The Lorax (June 17-21), and Paddington 2 (June 24-28). 

Tickets may be purchased online to reserve seats in advance or at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema box office at 7301 S. Santa Fe Drive; 100% of ticket sales this month support the DCL Foundation.

The DCL Foundation helps fund programs that reach youth, adults, and families in Douglas County and across Colorado. 

The Foundation uses its resources to introduce new parents to the library and its early literacy services through Cuddle Up & Read, and to provide scholarships for qualified kids attending Camp DCL and adults completing their high school equivalency testing. It also awards Douglas County schools and nonprofits for goals associated with the library’s Summer Reading Program.
