Donations Needed

A sad day. Clearing away the debris from the fallen marquee.

Last year local residents and film buffs from across the city donated $30,000 in short order to the Revue Film Society’s campaign to save the theatre.

Now that we have a lease, and the Revue is reopening, we’re happy. But we still have to open our wallets. There are big up-front costs to get the theatre operating. Rent has to be paid while the cinema is being fixed up; film distributors require deposits; and upgrading equipment and sprucing up the theatre will cost money.

For the start-up, we need $60,000 in addition to the $30,000 collected last year, for a total of $90,000.

Our campaign to raise that additional $60,000 is well under way, but we are still about $20,000 short of our target.

It's a challenge, but one we can meet with your help.
