Dear Friends of THE NEON

THE NEON has always been more than just a movie theater—it’s a beacon of creativity and community at the heart of Dayton. As we look toward the future, we’re asking for your help to keep this beloved space shining bright.



In 2025, we aim to elevate your movie-going experience by upgrading both of our theaters with new, state-of-the-art screens. These advanced screens will deliver sharper resolution, enhanced brightness, and richer color accuracy—giving you the best visual experience possible.

Every year, our annual campaign offers a chance to give back both practically and thoughtfully, supporting our work and welcoming audiences. With your help, we can ensure that THE NEON continues to be a vibrant space for everyone who walks through our doors.

Together we can make THE NEON even brighter in 2025!
