NOT A MEMBER YET?

When you join Friends of The Ross, you will receive two or more complimentary passes (depending on your membership level), a year of discounted admission to Ross films and events, discounted popcorn at the concessions stand, a punch card which earns you free popcorn and movies, and invitations to special Friends events. Friends memberships are tax deductible and a great value for cinema fans.

ALREADY A MEMBER?

Refer a new member during the membership drive and you will get two complimentary passes (per referral). The more members you refer the more chances you have to win.

Renewing during the drive will grant you a year of membership past your current expiration date, so you can renew your membership even if it isn’t due to expire.
