We need your help! Both of our East Bay theaters, the Elmwood and the Cerrito have been closed since March 17th. Even while we are closed our monthly expenses are in excess of $20,000 per month. We have survived so far by getting a small PPP loan and an EIDL, but we cannot survive without your assistance. If you love what we do, please consider making a contribution to our campaign...

The COVID-19 pandemic has put movie theaters across the country at risk of going dark for good. From small independent screens to nationwide exhibitors, our local theaters employ over 150,000 people and have formed a cornerstone of the American experience for generations. Without swift action from Congress our favorite theaters could close forever, depriving audiences of the magic of movies for years to come.
Together, we can urge Congress to keep movie theaters alive until they can fully reopen. Fill out the form letter HERE to tell your legislators that you demand action to save local movie theaters now.
