Gray's Reef Tuesdays: ocean films, Tybee Island, and family fun  Gray’s Reef National Marine Sanctuary Foundation and the Tybee Post Theater are thrilled to announce Gray’s Reef Tuesdays, a weekly film series highlighting the wonders of the ocean and our Georgia coast. Thanks to the generosity of lead sponsor Enmarket and media sponsor Connect Savannah, local residents and summer visitors alike will be able to enjoy award-winning films about the undersea world that promise to be fun and entertaining for the whole family. A Gray’s Reef representative will be on hand to provide a brief overview of the national marine sanctuary and the evening’s film as well as provide an opportunity for audience Q & A following the film. This 7-week series kicks-off on July 5 and continues each Tuesday night at 7:00pm through August 16. There is a suggested donation of $5 with all proceeds benefiting Tybee Post Theater and Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary Foundation. In addition, the Tybee Post Theatre concession stand will offer beer, wine, soft drinks, hot popcorn, and candy. Doors will open 30 minutes before each show. See the poster below for the exciting lineup...
About the Tybee Post Theater The historic Tybee Post Theater, set in the heart of the Fort Screven Historic District, was constructed in 1930 as a movie house for the soldiers stationed at the Army base. After going dark in the mid-1960s, the curtain was raised for the first time in 50 years in September 2015, reborn as a performing arts and movie venue for Tybee residents and visitors alike. It has commercial class projection and video equipment and theater seating.
