The Old Gazette Film Society is a sub-committee of the Dorrigo Dramatic Club Inc. formed in 2016 by a group of committed Dorrigo residents to provide an environment to share film, food and conversation on the Plateau.
We are a member of the Australian Film Societies Federation who issue to us, for a small fee, licences to show specific movies to our members.
Due to licensing restrictions, you must be a member of the Film Society to attend screenings which are then free. Members are allowed to bring one guest along per calendar year and a guest may attend twice before needing to become a member.
It's a wonderful community event and a great opportunity to meet new people and enjoy films, food and conversation. Basically, membership is a bargain at $5 a screening. Members have the opportunity to see 12 films a year.
Film nights are organised and run by volunteers. So please offer to come and help us serve refreshments or assist us with other tasks.
In 2018 we had 70 members with an average of 29 attending each film. Overall attendance for the year was 348 - not a bad outcome for a little community! For a more detailed report for last year go to Reports.
The films for the first half of next year are now on the Calendar. Looks like an interesting programme.
