The Free Wednesday Night Movie is a monthly community film screening held at the Halle Cultural Arts Center in downtown Apex. It offers local residents a chance to watch a feature film on the big screen without the cost of a traditional theater ticket. Because the featured films are selected for teenagers and adults, this event is best suited for middle schoolers, high schoolers, and parents. Doors open at 6:30 PM, giving you thirty minutes to find a seat before the 7:00 PM showtime. Since the title changes monthly and is not published online, you will need to call the center at 919-249-1120 or sign up for their newsletter to find out what is playing. While this is a mid-week event rather than a weekend activity, it serves as an excellent, low-stress budget option to break up the school week. Parking is available in the public lots around downtown Apex, making it easy to grab dinner nearby before the doors open.
