It’s official: we’re moving tonight’s screening to Rocky Sullivan’s. With the ground already damp and the threat of more rain on the horizon, it only makes sense. But we’ve still got a great night in store for you: Nora Brown will be bringing her fierce banjo skills to the evening starting at 7:45 and Brooklyn Ice House will be serving up a dinner of pulled pork sliders, hot dogs, mac cheese, and more. See you at Rocky’s!
Here at Red Hook Flicks we’ve always been fortunate that storm clouds on the horizon mean only a change of venue. This year is no exception as our friends at Rocky Sullivan’s have graciously opened their doors to us as our new rain location. Now if the weather is looking grim you can be sure to find us screening over at 46 Beard Street, where both dinner from our evening’s sponsor and the glories of a full bar await you.
Don’t cry Ben Affleck–just because the forecast is a washout doesn’t mean tonight’s screening is. That’s because we’re moving ARMAGEDDON to our rain location at Atelier Roquette at 63 Commerce Street between Van Brunt and Richards. Hometown will be making the trip with us, so come hungry for meatball subs and let’s close out this summer’s series right.
See you at Atelier!
Well we’ve been pretty lucky with the weather this summer–but not today, I’m afraid. While the rain will likely clear up by showtime tonight, the ground at the pier is soaking wet. Thankfully the ladies at Home/Made have once again made their catering space at Atelier Roquette available for just such an occasion. They’ll be opening up their doors at 63 Commerce Street at 7 PM and we’ll be screening at 8:30. And, not only will we have dinner from the Good Fork, and dessert from Dolce Brooklyn and KingLeche available, but we hear wine and beer will be as well.
So grab your blankets and chairs and we’ll see you at Atelier Roquette!
Well . . . when you’re an outdoor film series, it happens. Sometimes even on opening night. But never fear, Atelier Roquette has once again offered us their gorgeous event space as our rain-out location! And that means means that on top of dinner from Fort Defiance and ice cream and gelato from KingLeche and Dolce Brooklyn, there will be wine and beer for sale. So while we’re definitely keeping our fingers crossed for clear skies, it’s not a bad trade off. Tune in to this space tomorrow, and we’ll make the rain call by 6 PM.
As much as we do everything we can here at Red Hook Flicks to keep our screenings at Valentino, there are some days where the weather is just too dicey. We’ve been keeping a close eye on the radar and it’s showing two stubborn bands of rain heading straight for the pier this evening right during prime set up and screening time. And since our rain space at Atelier Roquette is so incredible (and has a liquor license!) we’re going to head on over there for tonight’s showing of PITCH PERFECT. And don’t worry, Big Red, the Pound’s food truck will be joining us there as well so you all can get your lobster roll fix. See you at Atelier! Screening starts at 8:30.
Our screening is on for tonight but given the likelihood of thunderstorms rolling through during show time, we’re officially setting up camp at Atelier Roquette. Ice House will be selling pork sliders and mac cheese, and Atelier will offer a selection of beer and wine. Show starts at 8:30!
We’ve got game–thanks largely to our sponsors at HOME/MADE who have made their gorgeous event space, Atelier Roquette available to us for foul weather screenings. In a perfect world, would we prefer to watch the sun set over Valentino Pier while enjoying cool breezes off the water and waiting for the evening’s film to begin? Of course! But this is about the best rain location we could ask for–and they have a liquor license. Small bonuses, you know? So while we keep our eyes to the sky for the next screening, you can rest assured that the show will most awesomely go on–rain or shine.
