Friends build the community core. Priority booking, members-only programming meetings, a financial floor that lets us take risks on lesser-known titles. Walk-ins still welcome at every screening — Friends just see them first.
Memberships open with the first season. Sign up to the list for first-access details and to be counted as a Founder Friend.
The core community membership. Designed for regular attendees who want to shape the programming dialogue and have first call on every screening.
Adds material support to the Friends model. Patrons give Bath Electric Picture House a financial floor that lets us programme lesser-known titles with confidence.
A community cinema's hardest year is its first. Without a returning core, programming choices have to be defensive — only safe titles fill thirty seats every time. With a Friends layer, the room earns the freedom to take risks.
Friends bring three things: returning faces at every screening, programming dialogue through members-only meetings, and a financial floor that lets us put on the Kieślowski retrospective in a city that already has the multiplexes.
Walk-in tickets are sold per screening at every event — Bath Electric Picture House is open to the public. Friends just see what's coming first, and have a seat at the conversation about what comes next.
From the regional film sector and from Bath's cultural institutions. Not sponsorship — alignment.
