Sunday, October 28th at 2 pm

October 15, 2018


For some people, going to a movie can be difficult because of the loud sounds and dark environment. 

Imagine the impact on a child with special needs who is affected by this sensory overload. 

Geisinger’s Autism & Developmental Medicine Institute (ADMI), SPARKSupporting  Autism & Families Everywhere (SAFE), and the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts are happy to offer children with special developmental needs and their families a  chance to experience the joy of seeing a movie on the big screen. 

Films in this series will:

• Provide a comfortable and accepting environment for those who want to get up, move around or make noise

• Feature family-friendly movies in 2D

• Begin on time, with no previews or trailers

• Lower the volume of music and special effects

• Provide low-level lighting, instead of total darkness
