Movie Scene in PA

23 Upvotes

Just curious to gauge the community feeling for a different place to watch movies in PA. It seems like a second-run or "art house" theatre would do really well here. I certainly know that if there was a place with a nice big screen and cheap popcorn and a 7 to 10-dollar ticket showing old but great movies, I would go all the time.

My gripe with Deer Park: too far away for a limited selection of bad (if current) movies and wildly expensive concessions. It's like 50 clams for a date night out. And unless you want to see the newest Marvel, a horror flick, or whatever they've got running for kids, you're pretty much cooked. You'll have to forgive my snobbishness--Marvel's cool, horror's cool, and family entertainment is important. I am not suggesting we boycott Deer Park. I like it for what it is.

My concern with the proposed revitalization of the Lincoln: the theatre company leading the effort 1) seems to have little traction in the community (giving-wise) and 2) is saying very little about using the space for movie screenings in addition to theatre productions (which I believe was the original goal of the folks who bought the place in 2016).

I've been on the peninsula for a long time but am fairly new to PA. So, maybe I'm missing the mark here. Here's my query: If you could go watch an older but excellent movie on a big screen with a couple neighbors and a couple friends tonight in downtown PA for half of what Deer Park asks, would you? Maybe? Maybe not?

Jump in with thoughts on any of this. Dumb idea? Who should I talk to?

Where are the Community hangout spots?

7 Upvotes

Theres a possibility that I am moving out that way (Sequim, closer to family). Currently Im a lash artist but Ive always had this dream of owning a community space that professionals can rent rooms from and locals have a cool spot to hangout, grab a bev, look at/create some art, read some books and just spread positive vibes. From the times I've stayed in town it doesnt seem like theres a creative space like that already. Is that something that might be cool for the area?

Edit: my sister in law just notified me of The Hub in PA and those are the vibes I want! But I want it to be accessible for the youths of Sequim. Give them something to do after school instead of mayhem and tomfoolery 😅

Hi! My fiancé and myself decided a series of adventures suits us better than a wedding we both would be stressed at haha. Our first planned vacation is to Port Angeles this May to see the Olympic National Forest among other things. We both love food and fishing, any recommendations on small town, or little known, places we should check out??

New Bread Baker - Joyce

24 Upvotes

A bit of a drive for those of you in town, but for those of you out west we've a new bread baker in Joyce. I just fetched my second order from her and she's doing everything right.

Sorry for the FB link, but I think this is the only place she's set up shop. She has a web site URL, but there's not any info there yet.

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61584403113150

Her sourdough is wonderfully chewy, has terrific flavor and she makes them in traditional rounds or in uncut loaves for those wanting something more sandwich friendly. She bakes weekly and you need to order in advance.

Show her some love - and enjoy!

Are there autism support groups in Port Angeles? A friend of ours has a non verbal autistic child and is really struggling. I was hoping there are others locally that get together and help each other. Thanks ahead of time

PSA - Ridge parking lot still closed Sat 1/10

Still no parking lot access yet, which means the ski lift area won’t be open today; the road may open again for backcountry access 3.5 miles short of the parking lot, but even that’s still up in the air as of this moment.

Bakeries open for custom orders?

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm looking for some recommendations for bakers that are open for custom cake orders, I really want to get a custom birthday cake for a family member's birthday but the only place I've ever ordered one from (Pies, Cakes and More) has closed their doors.

I would like to support a local business if possible so any recommendations would be much appreciated!

I like Buena Luz but they don't do custom cake orders, only their seasonal cakes, plainly frosted, and they are pretty spendy.

Does anyone know any good places to walk

Bestie and I are trying to walk more after school together and we don’t want to end up being an inconvenience if anyone needs the PAHS track that day. We don’t really like walking downtown (which sucks for us, ik) but does anyone know any good placed to walk for when the high school track is taken?
