For years, Suds N Cinema has been more than a movie theater.

It’s been first dates, family nights, Monday traditions, and a place where strangers laugh together and leave as neighbors.

We’ve worked hard to keep entertainment affordable and local in a time where everything keeps getting more expensive, but small independent businesses are struggling everywhere, and we’ve reached a point where we can’t do it alone anymore.

If Suds N Cinema cannot receive community support, we will have no choice but to close our doors.

We are asking the community we’ve served to help save a place that belongs to all of us.

Every donation — no matter how small — helps keep the lights on, the projector running, and a piece of downtown Fort Walton alive.

This isn’t just about a business.

It’s about whether places like this still get to exist.

If Suds N Cinema means something to you, please consider donating or sharing.

Let’s keep the movies rolling.
