The program provides a special opportunity for families to
enjoy their favorite films in a safe and accepting environment. The auditoriums
dedicated to the program have their lights up, the sound turned down and
audience members are invited to get up and dance, walk, shout or sing!
The idea for the program began with a request from a parent
with an autistic child for a special screening at AMC Columbia Mall 14 in
Columbia, MD. More than 300 children and parents attended the first screening.
We are thrilled to now offer the program at many locations
nationwide — please see below for a complete list of participating theatres. As
a leading theatrical exhibition company, we are so proud to be making a
difference in the estimated 1.5 million Americans living with an autism
spectrum disorder by offering families a chance to see a movie together — often
for the very first time.
