The Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque is an alternative and repertory film theatre located in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]The Cleveland Cinematheque, as it is colloquially known, was founded in 1984 by John Ewing, Ron Holloway, and George Gund III.[2] Originally housed at Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Institute of Art has been home to the non-profit since 1986.[3] John Ewing served as director and programmer from its founding until June 30, 2024.[4]
On August 1, 2015, The Cinematheque moved into its current space, the Peter B. Lewis Theater, a purpose built 300-seat cinema with 7.1 surround sound, 4K DCP, 16mm, and 35mm projection capabilities.[5]
Turkish film scholar Bilgesu Sisman became the Cinematheque's second director on July 1, 2024.[6]
Programming
[edit | edit source]The Cleveland Cinematheque shows films that wouldn't otherwise come to the region.[7] Each film programmed is a Cleveland exclusive at the time of its showing.[8] It serves as both revival house[9] and contemporary art house[10] cinema. It releases a screening schedule of classic and current films every other month.[11][12]
