National Silent Movie Day

Dare Arts is partnering with The Pioneer Theater to celebrate National Silent Movie Day on Sunday, September 29 at 4pm. The Pioneer Theater will be screening Buster Keaton’s 1928 film Steamboat Bill, Jr., which is a slapstick comedy about a young man who is put to work by his father, a riverboat captain about to be run out of business by a rival with a flashy new paddleboat.

This event is free for all Outer Banks Film Society members and general admission is $5 per person. Tickets must be purchased/reserved online here from The Pioneer Theater- Film Society Members will recieve a special code via email for free admission. 

Silent Movie Day was established in 2021 by film archivists to celebrate and preserve silent movies. The Pioneer Theater, founded in 1918, is the perfect venue to honor this vital part of cinema history.

Outer Banks Film Society Memberships are not refundable and are only available to adults 18 and up.

The Outer Banks Film Society was created to foster a community that appreciates the art of film. Unlike purchasing a ticket to go see a movie at the local theater, you join the Outer Banks Film Society through an annual or seasonal membership.
