Crandell Members Make a Difference

Join or Renew Today!

Your membership dollars directly support

  • Crandell Theatre ongoing operations and upkeep
  • A range of blockbuster, independent, and classic films curated for your enjoyment
  • FilmColumbia, the region’s premier film festival
  • Community programming from our partners in the area
  • Educational programming for school-aged children in the local district
  • Family programs, including our popular activity and film series Kid Flicks

Every dollar counts, especially now. Few people who see movies at the Crandell know that up to 65 percent of ticket prices go to studios and distributors. The Crandell is able to provide year-round screenings for the community and other programs through the support of our members and generous donors. Joining or renewing in the months leading up to the grand reopening will help us when we need it most.
