Community members are invited to enjoy the newly renovated Light Hall Auditorium beginning Saturday, October 4.

Movie screenings are scheduled at no cost to community members on Saturday, October 4 at 7:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.; and Sunday, October 5 at 2:00 p.m.

A newly created website, http://movies.wnmu.edu, is available for moviegoers to see film titles, show times and prices.

Beginning Friday, October 10, movie showings will be offered to the community each weekend at a minimal cost. WNMU students will be admitted for free to each showing, community students will be admitted at $1 per showing and adults will be admitted for $2 per showing. Concession sales will be available.

“This is an exciting step forward in improving campus life for our students,” said Jessica Morales, Director of Student Life. “This new auditorium will not only provide entertainment but also enhanced education opportunities for our students and the community.”

Renovations to Light Hall include a new outside patio area, refurbished indoor seating, and a state-of-the art audio and visual system. Funding for the project was available through a voter approved general obligation bond passed in 2012.

During the week, the auditorium will be used as an education space for lectures and performances.
