Outdoor theater coming to Northside

Not only is PAR Projects building an art and education center in Northside, but it’s also bringing an outdoor theater to the neighborhood. The theater will be part of the new building, and will show films March-October.
 
Films will be projected on two stacked shipping containers, which will be Phase I of PAR’s new building. The rest of the 2,000-square-foot building will branch off of either side of the theater, creating a horseshoe-shaped first floor.
 
“Everything we’re doing is a step toward the next piece in the building process,” says Jonathan Sears, executive director of PAR. For example, the Makers Mobiles that were around the neighborhood this past summer will be used to create the building.
 
PAR is currently holding a membership drive—for a $40 donation, members will get to watch 15 films for free, as well as receive a membership card, free access to other PAR events, swag and first dibs on PAR classes.
 
PAR’s goal is to gain 500 members in order to break ground, and raise $20,000.
