More about Mountain Shadow MEMBER BENEFITS:

-  Lower admission price per film and guaranteed seat. Your annual membership gives you a discount, compared to the $14.00 general admission ticket price.. With your membership you’re pre-paid for the entire year; as well as being assured there’ll be a seat for you for your selected Series! Members can also attend another Series’ date, space permitting; or use the Member Swap feature to try to exchange with another member to assure a seat.

- The Member Lending Library is available to members only, providing the opportunity to borrow prior films (blu-ray or DVD) of the vast majority of the films we’ve screened over the last twelve years! This enables members to catch a show they may have missed, or view the film a second time!

-  Film Discussions - Each month there's opportunity to participate in an hour-long Coffee & Film Discussion group that meets at 10 AM on the Monday following the last show each month. We use a reserved room at the Capital One Café on Main Street in Walnut Creek.

- The popular “Encore Evenings” program in the Director’s home is offered at least once each Summer for a limited number of members who sign-up.
