Summer Movie Pairings: Dune Part 2

The Huron County Museum loves a good pairing (like a calf with two heads), or the pairing of two different generations watching their favourite movies together. Join us on Wednesdays this summer for movie screenings that pair a recent blockbuster at 11am with a well-loved classic at 2pm. Enjoy one or both films on the big screen in our air-conditioned theatre!

Summer screenings at the museum are a relaxed screening environment welcoming for children and those who may need to get up or make noise. No pre-registration required. The theatre is a safe zone for snacks: please enjoy any snacks or drinks in the theatre or lobby, and do not take them into the exhibit galleries. Candy sticks and pop are available for purchase in the gift shop.

Please note if bringing snacks from home: The Huron County Museum & Historic Gaol are allergy aware!  Please help us to create a safe and inclusive space for everyone, by thinking of visitors with food allergies. Peanut and tree nut allergies can cause a more immediate threat to life than other food-related allergies. For the safety of all visitors, the Huron County Museum asks visitors to not consume nut or nut based products inside the museum or gaol. Please note, however, that the Huron County Museum cannot guarantee that our sites are entirely nut-free, as we are open to the public and snacks offered during programs and special events are prepared at offsite facilities.
