Arbor Acres is pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with Aperture Cinema! With this new affiliation you will be able to enjoy FREE private screenings of certain films at Aperture throughout 2018.

Arbor Acres will be a proud corporate sponsor of films which celebrate the power and purpose of aging. Our support of thematic films in this category will be acknowledged through on-screen advertisements throughout the year. This exposure throughout the Winston-Salem community will heighten awareness of the power of aging.

Our first FREE screening will be January 18, 2018 at 3:00 pm with the powerful new film Darkest Hour. This film reveals Winston Churchill (played by Gary Oldman) as a living, breathing lion of a leader.

Make your reservation NOW for this private screening by calling Annie at ext. 1210. Seating is limited to the first 75 residents. Each resident can enjoy a free glass of wine or fountain drink and free small popcorn (what's a movie without popcorn?!).

Transportation will be provided for up to 60 residents. Busses will leave beginning at 2:00 pm at the Berrier entrance.

Again, contact Annie at the front desk (ext. 1210) to make your reservation.
