ORIGINS: A FILM FESTIVAL — SPECIAL PROMOTIONS

Five Days. Five Films. One Community.

We're excited to add a few special opportunities to Origins: A Film Festival, September 16–20 at The Gem Theatre in Beaverton.

$5 Festival Tickets

Every festival movie is just $5!

Come see one movie, see all five, or bring the whole family for an affordable week of great films and community.

$7 Small Combo Certificates

We're also offering $7 Small Combo Certificates, which include:

• One small popcorn

• One small fountain drink

Want to make it a little bigger?

+$1 to upgrade to a medium
+$2 to upgrade to a large

Combo certificates can be used any time during the festival week, so you're not limited to a particular movie or day.

Pay It Forward

Want to help someone else enjoy Origins?

$5 ticket certificates are available for each day of the festival. Each certificate is good for one showing on the specific day for which it was purchased.

We've limited the number of certificates available for each day to match the theater's seating capacity. This helps us spread attendance throughout the festival and avoid overcrowding on any one day.

You can give a certificate directly to a friend, neighbor, family member, or someone you know who would enjoy the festival. Local businesses and churches are also welcome to purchase certificates and distribute them through their organizations.

If you don't have someone specific in mind, certificates can also be left at The Gem for someone in the community to use.

It's a simple way to pay it forward and help make Origins accessible to more people in our community.

A SPECIAL SATURDAY AT THE GEM

Sit, Stay, Heal — Saturday, September 19

Saturday is shaping up to be a very special day at Origins.

Approximately 25 people connected with Sit, Stay, Heal are expected to be at The Gem throughout the day, giving our community a unique opportunity to meet some of the people behind the film and share the experience with them.

We're especially excited that Good Harbor Blue, the Michigan studio behind the film, will be represented at the theater.

7:00 PM Showing Sponsored by Dale United Methodist Church

We're also pleased to announce that Dale United Methodist Church is sponsoring the 7:00 PM showing of Sit, Stay, Heal.

That means this special Saturday evening showing is being made possible through the generosity of a local community partner.

Please join us in thanking Dale United Methodist Church for helping bring this film and the people behind it to The Gem.

With approximately 25 people connected to the film expected to be with us Saturday, this is more than just another movie showing—it's an opportunity to meet, connect, and celebrate a Michigan-made film together.
