The Emperor's New Groove

The Inland Northwest is lucky to still be graced with numerous historic, single-screen theaters that have been lovingly cared for and restored over the decades, like Spokane’s Garland Theater (which is set to reopen on March 1 under its new ownership and management group), but also Moscow’s Kenworthy, Sandpoint’s Panida, Ritzville’s Ritz, and many others. (In case you missed it, we explored the history of these and other theaters in the Jan. 11 edition of the Inlander). And in a convenient coincidence, Innovia Foundation is sponsoring a series of free family-friendly movies at these venues throughout February as part of the nonprofit’s 50th anniversary. The following showings are happening this weekend: The Emperor’s New Groove (Kenworthy, Feb. 24 at 2 pm), Migration (The Ritz, Feb. 23-24 at 7 pm, Feb. 25 at 3 pm), Cool Runnings (Panida, Feb. 25 at 2:30 pm).
