Love this non-profit little cinema. Important to support this place as much as possible.

I watched star wars here once. But normally they play more artsy films.

I love movies and movie theaters... I like the arts, independent cinema, cocktails, date nights, good nonprofits, etc... the folks who run the Avalon are exceptional and hire great staff... but I really wish the Avalon offered ONE family-friendly screening a week. This could take place Saturday or Sunday mornings when the theater is free, or even take advantage of the second screen. This would generate a good deal of much-needed revenue for a nonprofit, entice people back to the cinema after COVID, and introduce a new generation of screen-obsessed kids to the BIG screen. (I will get this event sponsored in 5 minutes so it's all $$.) I have mentioned this to the proprietors, this is the least important issue currently happening in the world, and the Avalon is already one of my five previous lifetime Google Maps reviews (even though it's the best local search platform ever created and should also include a rec for Muchas Gracias)... it's just looking like rain this afternoon and watching the Greatest Showman with the kids would be a lot of fun!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

There's a small parking lot behind the theater as well as metered curbside parking in front. You may also be able to park in the lots attached to the nearby grocery store and drug store.

Hi Karin, At this point we do not have any plans to show The Territory. Thanks for asking!

Have the seats at the Avalon been updated?

The Avalon Theatre | Sep 2, 2022

Hi there, we're not totally sure we understand your question. Are you talking about the seat selection in the online booking option, or the physical seats? If the later, all of the seats were updated a couple years ago.

how many seats in each theater?

Billy Sahm | May 5, 2022

Are membership dues tax deductible? I look forward to your reply.

Marilda Averbug | Oct 3, 2019
The Food Kingdom | Oct 3, 2019

Not 100% of it but a unsubstantial amount, depending on your level of membership. They subtract out the amount that they consider to be represented by the benefits of membership. But if you select the highest level then I think about half of it is deductible. And if you go there once a week or more it definitely pays for itself so I recommend membership at the highest level or at least the second highest level.

Will Never Look Away still be playing next weekend, March 15, 16?

Susan Joplin | Oct 3, 2019
Pamila Gray | Oct 3, 2019

Possibly. Movies change on Fridays, although the Avalon tends to run them more than one week. You'll have to check on Thursday. Any of the movie apps will work. Or call their box office number.

I purchased tickets on my computer at work and could not print them. I have the information but not the actual tickets. Is that proof enough? Our movie is Green Book at 2pm today.

Ellen Crows | Oct 3, 2019
Pamila Gray | Oct 3, 2019

There should be a reference or ID# on the tickets. They'll need that to reference the sale.
