2nd Annual Drive-In Movie Night at the FAC
CAMDEN, SC - The Fine Arts Center of Kershaw County (FAC) is holding its 2nd annual Drive-In Movie Night, Saturday, September 29 on the FAC grounds. Gates will open at 6:30 p.m. and the movie will begin at dusk. The featured presentation will be Wizard of Oz. An email and facebook survey went out to FAC supporters asking for a vote between several classic and popular movies. The winner of the vote was overwhelmingly, the Wizard of Oz. Admission is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
"It was fun to see what our supporters wanted to see. We started with 10 films, then narrowed the field down to three: Forrest Gump, Wizard of Oz and Ice Age," said Jane Peterson, Director of Marketing for the FAC. "After a great response, it was clear that Wizard of Oz, one of the most popular films ever would be the choice. So many people have only seen this film with commercial interruption. Not so here. It should be a lot of fun and very nostalgic for parents bringing their children to see it," she concluded.
