(press release)

AURORA, Colo. – The Aurora Fox Arts Center is bringing the magic of classic cinema back to its historic theater with the launch of Fox Flix, a new monthly film series, offering audiences a chance to experience iconic, family-friendly movies on the big screen once again.

“Fox Flix is designed to fill the gap left by the closure of several beloved independent theaters in the metro area, ” said Richard Cowden, executive producer of the Aurora Fox Arts Center.

Held one Saturday afternoon each month, Fox Flix will kick off at 2 p.m. March 1 with “Labyrinth,” the 1986 cult classic starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly. The adventure follows 16-year-old Sarah as she navigates a magical labyrinth to rescue her baby brother from the enigmatic Goblin King.

Fox Flix is a nostalgic nod to the Aurora Fox’s origins. Before becoming a hub for live performances, the venue first opened as a movie theater in 1946. Now, moviegoers can sit back, relax and enjoy cinematic favorites in a setting rich with local history. Admission is only $5, and concessions, including drinks and

snacks, will be available for purchase.
