Come Sit With Us!

VIDIOTS NAME-A-SEAT CAMPAIGN

SUPPORT VIDIOTS + GRACE A SEAT IN THE EAGLE THEATRE OR OUR MUBI MICROCINEMA WITH YOUR NAME, OR DEDICATE ONE TO A MOVIE-LOVING FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER!

Your support of our Come Sit With Us! Campaign directly contributes to running our home at the beautiful and historic Eagle Theatre.

When Northeast L.A.’s beloved Eagle went dark more than 20 years ago, her future was uncertain. Lucky for us, the churchgoers who took over the building liked comfy and clean movie theater chairs (with super cool armrests), so lucky us, and lucky YOU, we get to fill them up with movie-lovers!

To watch even more movies we added our lovely MUBI Microcinema, which recently had a makeover and now – just like in the Eagle – one of the gorgeous seats can have your name on it! Get yours while you still can.

NAME IT! PERSONALIZE A-SO-VERY-VIDIOTS PLAQUE WITH A NAME OR MESSAGE, FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE CHAIR!

Donation Amount: $1,000 | Personalizes one seat in our historic Eagle Theatre. Only a handful of seats remaining.
Donation Amount: $600 | Personalizes one seat in our MUBI Microcinema.

Like other donations to Vidiots, yours is tax deductible as allowed by law, save your receipt for tax season! Claim your seat HERE.

ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS!

Does my name on a seat mean I get to sit in my seat at every show I come to? While we can’t wait to see you in your seat, for lots of logistical reasons, we can’t guarantee that the seat(s) you’ve named will be available for screenings or events. But rest assured, anyone who sits in your seat will know how devoted you are to Vidiots, cinema, and the thrilling theatrical experience (and maybe they’ll thank you)!
I want to buy multiple seats – can I have them next to each other? Lucky us, we’ve sold most of our beautiful seats, so we can’t make promises, but we will do our best to place your seats together. And please reach out to us if this is a do-or-die for you and we’ll double check before you donate: info@vidiotsfoundation.org.
How long will my name be on my seat? Your plaque and seat are guaranteed for the lifetime of the seat, which isn’t always predictable, but we estimate five to seven years! We’ll always offer you first dibs when and if the time comes for new seats!
Can I name the seat for someone else? Of course! We’d love to have you use your naming right to honor a friend, a family member, or even a movie-loving four-legged friend (they really do exist).
Can I go in on the seat with a friend or a group? Absolutely! We’d love for you to gather friends to cover the cost of seat-naming donation! If you have too many names to list on the plaque, come up with a fun or meaningful-to-you team name!
Do you have ADA seats for naming rights? Unfortunately, all of our ADA accompanying seats are already sold to generous donors.
How can I pay to name my seat?: We’ll ask you for your credit card info when you click the Claim Your Seat link above, but if you’d like to pay by check, you can make it payable to Vidiots Foundation and mail to us at: Vidiots Foundation, 4884 Eagle Rock Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90041
I’m a Vidiots Founding Member, do I get to name a seat? First off, THANK YOU for being such an important part of our family!
