The Dark Knight. Gotham’s Protector. The Caped Crusader. Bruce Wayne’s Night Job. Indeed, few heroes have the name recognition of Batman, one of the most beloved and iconic superheroes of all time. And while Batman has a storied and celebrated history, it was Tim Burton who first introduced most audiences to his exploits with his 1989 smash hit blockbuster. Starring Michael Keaton as the Caped Crusader and Jake Nicholson stealing the show as the Clown Prince of Crime, the Joker, Burton’s Batman introduced audiences to a dark and surrealist vision of Gotham and helped popularize superheroes for a new generation. We hope that you will join us and remember to put a SMILE on your face.

Cinematery is our annual outdoor summer film screenings. Held on the cemetery grounds, this one-of-a-kind event allows you to enjoy the ambiance of the cemetery after dark while taking in a classic film with friends and family. So pack your chairs or picnic blanket and whatever tasty treats you enjoy and plan to join us for an exclusive picnic at a gorgeous Washington landmark. Join us for an evening under the stars!

Feel free to bring your own beverages and food. Alcohol is permitted and will also be for sale. Keep in mind that all guests will be ID checked upon entry. We also recommend bringing your own blankets, low lying lawn chairs, etc. Please do NOT bring chairs that may obstruct the view of those behind you.

Gates open about an hour before sunset and the movie begins at sunset. Times are adjusted for earlier sundown times.

Reservations are required. The recommended donation is $10 per person, although you are welcome to give more.

You can purchase your tickets HERE!

 

We would like to thank our community partner and neighbor Fulcrum Properties Group for sponsoring the Cinematery screen and complimentary popcorn.
