_Cr__.OUTDOOR CINEMA & MUSIC AT BIRCH PARK ARTS, CULTURE & COMMUNITY: UNDER THE STARS The Frida Cinema is a 501(c)(3) mission -driven nonprofit art house theater that has complemented its in-house programming with outdoor film and special event presentations since 2014, including drive-in presentations and garden -style screenings at parks, historic cemeteries, and parking lot rooftops such as the 5th & Spurgeon parking lot in Downtown Santa Ana. Upon the arrival of COVID-19, these outdoor events served to fill an immediate need, welcoming folks of all ages to rejoin their community and go back to the movies in a safe setting. We believe in the enduring power of cinema and the arts to bring communities together for entertainment, enrichment, and inspiration. We are pleased and grateful to present the following proposal for a series of films at Downtown Santa Ana's Birch Park, which will be presented free -of -charge to our community. Each film will be preceded by live music. DATES The following proposal is for a series of eight (8) outdoor cinema nights in Birch Park.
