Welcome to summer, Pennsylvania! Throughout the season, we’ll be highlighting fun things to do around the state, like outdoor adventures, festivals, day trips, and more.

Since summer is the season of blockbuster movies, it’s a good time to highlight the many free movie screenings across the state. 

There are dozens of outdoor events where you can watch great movies for free, usually at parks or other green spaces, with local food and drink and pre-movie fun. Some are hosted by cities and towns, while others are brought to the public thanks to arts societies and other nonprofits.

Our Kalena Thomhave has this roundup of where to find free movie nights near you.

The Keystone is a small, independent news organization with limited financial resources. Paying our reporters’ salaries and the expense of sending them around the state to cover important stories like data center development, education, affordability, and healthcare adds up.

You won’t find a paywall keeping you from this important information. That’s why we’re asking for your financial support during our current Supporter Drive.

Any amount you’re able to donate from now until June 30 will enable us to keep our news free and accessible to all Pennsylvanians.

Earlier this year, a 520,000-square-foot warehouse in Upper Bern Township, Berks County, was sold to the US government on behalf of the Department of Homeland Security and ICE for $87.4 million. Records showed that around the same time, the government purchased another warehouse in Tremont Township, Schuylkill County, for $120 million. 

The warehouses were among seven properties across the country that DHS intended to convert into ICE detention centers. But following local pushback from residents and government officials over the lack of transparency and engagement from ICE and DHS regarding the purchase of the buildings, the New York Times is reporting that ICE officials now plan to sell or give away most of the seven warehouses bought to detain immigrants, including the two Pa. properties.
