In the 1940s, a young boy named Ralphie attempts to convince his parents, his teacher, and Santa that a Red Ryder BB gun really is the perfect Christmas gift.
Why we're showing it: A Christmas Story is an Artcraft tradition, shown annually the first weekend of December to coincide with Franklin's Holiday Lighting on Saturday, December 7th. The film itself is a funny, satirical look at Christmas through the eyes of a clever kid growing up in the 1940s.
The bar will be open for evening showtimes.
>> Please, no outside food, drinks, or drink containers.
