The Committee

The Last Remaining Seats volunteer planning committee helps shape our annual classic film series in Los Angeles’ historic theatres. Committee members support the Conservancy by:

  • Selecting films for the series through a voting process

  • Developing and implementing pre- and post-film programming, events, and displays

  • Assisting with concessions and day-of programming needs

Once the film line-up is confirmed, volunteers choose a sub-committee that interests them (such as audience engagement, selfie stations, props and displays, or community outreach) and commit to helping with at least one screening during the season.

Attendance at every meeting isn’t required, but to be a voting member of the committee, you must be a Conservancy member and attend at least three meetings within a 12-month period.

The committee is active from September through June. Meetings are generally held on the second Tuesday of each month, primarily via Zoom, but occasionally in person.
