ArtsQuest Announces Free Family Movie Series for the Summer Season!

Bethlehem, Lehigh Valley, PA, May 2, 2024 – Join us for our Free Family Movie Series presented by Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE). ArtsQuest venues – the Levitt Pavilion at SteelStacks and the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinema – offer two very different experiences, allowing you to choose the right one for you.

Bring blankets and lawn chairs to Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks, presented by Lehigh Valley Health Network, to sit on as you enjoy movies, under the stars. Free parking is available at the parking lots on First Street immediately adjacent to SteelStacks; food and beverages will be available at the Mack Truck Stop at the Levitt Pavilion, as well as the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks, located across the street from the Levitt Pavilion.

All films that are a part of the Free Family Movie Series on the lawn will be screened at 6:30 p.m. 

Make this summer fam-tastic with these great family movies. Relax under the stars, enjoy some food and take on some magnificent adventures with the characters in the movies of your choosing. A little bit of summer fun is what the whole year is all about!

Our Sensory Friendly Family Film Series is located at the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinema inside the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks. The program is specifically designed for children and adults living with autism and allows everyone to experience the joy of seeing their favorite movies on the big screen.

As part of the film screenings, talking and walking are permitted, and stimming (self-regulation behavior) is encouraged. The theater’s house lights are dimmed but remain on, while the film volume is lowered and previews are eliminated, all in an effort to provide a comfortable viewing experience for attendees. Additionally, families with special dietary needs are allowed to bring food from home.

All films that are a part of the Sensory Friendly Family Film Series will be screened at 1:30 p.m.

“It’s always exciting when ArtsQuest and ABE find new ways to grow our ongoing partnership in ways that benefit families across the region.” Says Thomas R. Stoudt, Executive Director at Lehigh-Northampton Airport Authority. “We welcome everyone to enjoy this free entertainment and are counting down the days to showtime!”
