WAM Nights: “Sixteen Candles” Movie Night
◆ Friday, October 2nd, 2026 | 6 - 8 PM
◆ Movie: "Sixteen Candles" | Rated PG
◆ Fall back in time with films that celebrate what it is to be a teen. In this program series, each screening features the nostalgic teenage Americana pictured in 'David Hornback: Where the Hell is Wichita?'. Grab a drink or a bite to eat from EAT at WAM and join us for a movie night.
◆ Oh, to be sixteen again! Join us for Sixteen Candles (1984), directed by John Hughes—a coming-of-age story that explores high school archetypes, like nerds, jocks, and beauty queens.
