Seward Community Winter Family Movie Series, Seward, AK (2026)

03/25/2026

Now that the winds have died down a bit and the evening springtime sunshine is in full force – we’re starting to get ready for summer and spend time outside! We only have a few more weeks of movies planned, so please consider joining us this Friday night and enjoy a classic (or a remake of a classic) with your neighbors!

This Friday night at the Movies

6:00 – Back To The Future (PG – 116 mins)
In this 1980s sci-fi classic, small-town California teen Marty McFly is thrown back into the '50s when an experiment by his eccentric scientist friend Doc Brown goes awry. Traveling through time in a modified DeLorean car, Marty encounters young versions of his parents, and must make sure that they fall in love, or he'll cease to exist. Even more dauntingly, Marty has to return to his own time and save the life of Doc Brown.

Desperate for money to save his sick daughter, Ben Richards is convinced by the show's ruthless producer to enter the game as a last resort.

Have you noticed that it is light until after 9 PM these days? If we could just tone down the wind it would be perfect!

When it’s nasty outside after a long week, it really is a great thing to be able to relax with some popcorn and a movie Friday night. We hope you’ll brave the winds and join us!

This Friday March 20th at the movies…

6:00 The Neverending Story (PG – 94 mins)
On his way to school, Bastian ducks into a bookstore to avoid bullies. Sneaking away with a book called "The Neverending Story," Bastian begins reading it in the school attic. The novel is about Fantasia, a fantasy land threatened by "The Nothing," a darkness that destroys everything it touches. The kingdom needs the help of a human child to survive. When Bastian reads a description of himself in the book, he begins to wonder if Fantasia is real and needs him to survive.

Well it certainly feels like Spring Break season! We know that a ton of you will be headed to warmer climates for a few days. Have fun and be safe! We hope the only movies you watch are the ones you take of your family adventure (and maybe on the plane late at night).

For those of us lucky enough to be here in Seward enjoying all of the majesty our backyard has to offer, we have some GREAT NEWS! We were planning to be ‘dark’ this Friday – but it turns out we have TWO BRAND NEW movies to show so let’s pack the house for a ‘Spring Break Kickoff Movie Night!’

We hope to see you and your family down at the Rae Building this Friday – and are really looking forward to seeing more of you volunteer to help out in what we’re thinking will be a great Friday Night!

This Friday March 6th at the movies…

Zootopia 2 (PG – 110 mins) Rookie cops Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde find themselves on the twisting trail of a great mystery when Gary De'Snake arrives in Zootropolis and turns the animal metropolis upside down.

🎂 BIRTHDAY EMERGENCY! 🎬

The truth is, we wouldn’t have our movie series at all if it weren’t for Marie Fletcher, her husband Skip, and the Liberty Theater.

Marie moved to the Mat-Su several years ago, and we are thrilled to share that she will be celebrating her 90th birthday next week! 🎉

There isn’t much time, but Marie’s daughter Kambe is collecting photos and stories to print and share at her birthday celebration.
If you have a memory or photo of Marie you’d like to share — please email it to:

📧 [email protected]

We’ll forward everything to Kambe right away so it can be included at her party.

For literally decades, Marie and Skip worked tirelessly to provide a much-needed place for family recreation in our tiny hamlet on Resurrection Bay. If your family lived in Seward, you knew Marie and you were at the Liberty regularly. One of my fondest memories of the theater is the corkboard covered with family photos — mine was on there somewhere!

The volunteers of the Seward Winter Family Community Movie Series and the Seward Arts Council are truly humbled to follow in Marie’s footsteps and wish her a Healthy and Happy year ahead!

💌 Coming to the movies tomorrow?
We’ll have a large handmade birthday card available to decorate — Marie will LOVE a handmade cards from kids in her favorite town.

We're back this week, and in the home stretch...almost halfway to Spring Break! The daylight is starting to come back and the winter activities (at least a few miles inland where there has been less rain and colder temps) are in their prime! However, it's still cold and dark (and wet) in the evenings, so why not come down and enjoy a movie to kick off the weekend?

This Friday February 6th at the movies....

6:00 PM The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Toons Movie (PG 91 mins). Porky Pig and Daffy Duck become Earth's only hope when their antics at the local bubble-gum factory uncover a secret alien mind-control plot. Faced with cosmic odds, they must save their town and the world while not driving each other totally looney.
TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBp5k5z_ybE

8:00 PM M3GAN 2.0 (PG13 - 119 mins). Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous rampage, its creator, Gemma, has become an advocate for government oversight of AI. Unbeknownst to her, a defense contractor has created a military-grade weapon known as Amelia, the ultimate infiltration spy. However, as Emlia's self-awareness increases, it becomes less interested in taking orders. Hoping to stop Emilia, Gemma decides to resurrect M3GAN, making it faster, stronger, and more lethal.

Sorry for the late notice, but we wanted to make sure that everyone knows that there won't be movies at the Rae building tonight! Instead, you should all head over to Seward High School to cheer on the Seahawks at the annual Seahawk Classic! There are visiting teams from Bethel, Unalaska, and Kenai. You never know who will be suited up for Seward...probably not these players!

We'll be back next Friday February 6th...maybe with some of the folks in the pic below doing what they do best (not playing HS Basketball)

01/20/2026

The days are getting longer, and it looks like we may have a “normal” winter after all (whatever that means).

This week, we’re especially lucky to share a brand-new, popular movie… so we thought it would be extra fun to dig deep into the archives and pair it with one of the most classic films of all time. Even better, it’s the perfect prequel for our second movie of the night!

🎬 This Friday, January 23rd at the Movies

6:00 PM – The Wizard of Oz (G • 102 minutes)
When a tornado rips through Kansas, Dorothy (Judy Garland) and her dog Toto are whisked away to the magical land of Oz. Along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, they meet a Scarecrow in need of a brain, a Tin Man missing a heart, and a Cowardly Lion searching for courage. To earn the Wizard’s help, the group must face the Wicked Witch of the West.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njdreZRjvpc

8:00 PM – Wicked: For Good (PG-13 • 137 minutes)
Now branded as the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba lives in exile while Glinda enjoys fame and privilege in Emerald City. As anger grows across Oz, the two must reunite to change their fate—and the fate of Oz itself—for good.
