LIAF presents: Kids’ Club at Picturehouse Cinemas

May 14, 2015 by LIAF

We’re back at Picturehouses throughout London and the UK with our latest Kids’ Club programme!

Animation, like childhood, can be full of wonder with the biggest pleasures being the simplest ones. This programme strips away all the soft-sell toy ads and the over-the-top blockbuster-style special effects and just delivers up a collection of wonderful films full of simple joys. These films are exclusively for children and their parents or carers. Unaccompanied adults are not admitted.

Children are encouraged to vote for their favourites and tell us what they think about the films on show. Find out more here

Tickets will be available for purchase from your local Picturehouse
