LAINI Girls’ Movie Nights is a free series of drop-off movie evenings for girls ages 6 to 11 at The Jamii Hub. Each screening brings girls together to watch a family film, share pizza and popcorn, and spend time in a warm, welcoming space led and supervised by Jamii’s team. It is a chance to relax, laugh, and enjoy a fun night out that feels easy, social, and special.
As part of Jamii’s LAINI program, these movie nights are shaped by the same spirit of connection, creativity, and belonging that runs through our work with girls and families in Toronto. While each evening centres on a different film, the heart of the series stays the same: giving girls a place where they can feel comfortable, included, and excited to spend time together.
Across the series, participants will watch animated films that are thoughtful, visually engaging, and full of heart. The movie choices lean into themes like courage, family, friendship, imagination, and finding your place, which makes each screening feel fun, meaningful, and easy to connect with. Together, they create the kind of movie night experience that feels exciting for kids while still holding the warmth and care that families have come to expect from Jamii.
For families looking for free programs for girls in Toronto, kids’ movie nights in downtown Toronto, or welcoming community programs on The Esplanade, LAINI Girls’ Movie Nights offers a simple and joyful way to take part. These evenings are designed especially for girls ages 6 to 11 and are held as drop-off events, with Jamii staff present throughout the full screening.
These events are free for participants. Registration is required, and space is limited.
