Tickets to the movie screenings are pay-what-you-can, though the suggested donation price is $5.
“We want everyone to access the healing power of movies!” White Horse wrote on their website. “Perhaps you can only afford a few dollars, or maybe you have resources to cover the cost for others. Donate What You Can!”
The series will launch with “Frozen,” the modern animated classic featuring “Let It Go” and starring Kristen Bell, Jonathan Groff and Idina Menzel. “Frozen” will be shown from 2-4 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 28.
