The Community Cinema & Amphitheater is a place where film, family and fun come together at Austin’s coolest outdoor venue. Nestled into the Community First! Village countryside, the outdoor cinema and amphitheater has room for hundreds to catch a show or book an event under the stars.
Mobile Loaves & Fishes is thrilled to partner with Austin’s iconic Alamo Drafthouse to present the most exciting movie experience in town. The Community Cinema presents screenings throughout the year – and you’re always invited! We regularly host guided tours of the Village so come have a blast and learn about the Community First! Village too.
The Community Grille (staffed by Community First! neighbors earning a dignified income) serves up hot food, concessions, snacks, and drinks. Cards only, cash no longer accepted. Tips are much appreciated. Thank you for your generosity during the show!
