Cinema & Community
"I'm so excited. This will be my first time going to the movies!"
- Maria Alexandra (Emiliano Zapata, 9 years old)
Cinema & Community Program
Program Overview
In an area with no other cinemas nearby for miles, we believe that a fun day at the movies is an opportunity to spark curiosity, joy, conversation, new perspectives, and bring the communities together.
Our Cinema & Community Program presents engaging film series based on a theme that is relevant or impactful for children and families from our local villages.
In 2016 Cinepolis generously donated a 45-seat cinema, which has allowed us to conduct various events that are completely free to the community members. Since then we have conducted events such as Cinema & Guest Speakers, Cinema & Gallery, and open screenings.
The cinema can be rented for private functions. If interested please contact Lizzet (lizzet@careyesfoundation.org). the cinema & community program coordinator, to inquire prices and available dates.
