Arlee Theater announces Family Fridays
[April 06, 2026]
Mason City, IL - Friday, April 3 guests at the Arlee were treated
to a surprise at the box office - their tickets were already paid for!
Thanks to a generous grant from the Mason County Community Foundation
NFP and a sponsorship from RWE Clean Energy, movie admission for all
ages is free every Friday all spring and summer long at the Arlee
Theater.
This is valid for the 7pm show every Friday, even if it's a brand new
release - if there's a movie playing, your ticket is on them!
RWE Clean Energy is a renewable energy company with over 15 years of
experience in the U.S. renewables business. With projects in
development, construction, and operations in 45 states, including
Illinois, RWE has a proven track record of delivering high quality
projects across the U.S. As a long-term owner/operator, RWE is committed
to the communities in which they establish projects. They are currently
developing Coyote Road, a 150 MW solar farm in Delavan, Tazewell County,
which will produce enough electricity to power 25,000 homes, generate
$26 million in new property dollars, and bring hundreds of construction
jobs to the area. Coyote Road is moving toward construction, with ground
breaking slated for later this spring.
As a show of RWE’s commitment to being good neighbors and long-term
members of the community, they’ve offered to pay for child tickets at
the Arlee, so families can enjoy a night out and take in some of the
biggest hits gracing the silver screen in the coming months. The Mason
County Community Foundation's grant will be covering adult admission, as
well as a handful of additional free shows throughout the year!

and the theater has golden eggs hidden in the auditorium for kids to
find before most G, PG, and some PG-13 movies - which they can exchange
at the concession stand for a prize. The Friday shows will also include
a few extra eggs to be found, courtesy the Family Fridays program. For
