I’m The Everett's Movie Team.

I’m fundraising for The Everett Theater.

The Everett theatre was constructed in 1922 as one of the finest movie theatre's on the Delmarva peninsula by John Everett Lewis, the theatre's namesake. A team of volunteers continue to provide classic films, and family favorites, to the community. Throughout the year original 35mm films are shown on our two vintage carbon-arc Simplex type E-7 projectors.  It's a Wonderful Life, Polar Express, Disney films and more have graced the screen in 2023 using the nostalgic equipment.

Supporting the movie team will assist in the upkeep of not only the carbon-arc projectors, it will continue to support the ever changing technology required to show family films for generations to come.
