Project Overview

Working within strict guidelines for social gatherings during the COVID-19 pandemic, a series of drive-in movies offered an opportunity to provide an outing for families and to view a film away from a tablet or television screen, while taking part in a community event. A variety of films were shown, from one inspired by a true story to a musical to ones based on children's books.
