In 2022, Main Street Dyersburg held its first Fall Festival. The Dyersburg/Dyer County Chamber of Commerce rented an inflatable movie screen, projector, and sound system for approximately $1,500 and showed Hocus Pocus.
Several dozen people brought lawn chairs and gathered inside the building to enjoy a family outing. Based upon the success of this trial event, we would like to expand the offerings to a more frequent and predictable schedule of Movies at the MARKET.
With the improvements to the stage, movies could be shown on the grassy lawn and moved indoors in the event of inclement weather. However, we cannot afford to host many showings when renting the equipment. Recognition could be given to the sponsoring entity at the beginning of each movie, such as “Movies at the MARKET. Made possible through a generous grant from Dyersburg Noon Rotary Club.”
