Have you missed the chance to see first-run alternative, independent, and
foreign films on the big screen? So have the founders of the non-profit
Paradise Sisters Film Society: It�s time to bring repertory cinema back to
Halifax!

The Paradise Sisters Film Society has already been greeted by a very
enthusiastic community response, and volunteers are now working to
transform a terrific downtown venue into an earthly haven for film lovers.

Our goal is to open The Paradise Cinema, a comfortable, accessible theatre
running great films seven days a week. It will house quality sound and
projection, a concession stand full of tasty treats, and up to 120 happy
moviegoers per screening.

Within walking distance of some of Halifax�s most popular restaurants,
clubs, hotels, and shops, The Paradise Cinema will become a valuable
addition to the city�s cultural center.

We�re shooting for a September, 2002 opening. To make this happen, we need
your support. By providing Corporate Sponsorship or becoming a Founding
Member for $100, you will become instrumental in making The Paradise
Cinema a reality.  Or, if you want to become a future member, email us,
(address below) and we'll put you on our contact list.

Screening the diversity of today, and supporting the art of tomorrow

The thriving artistic and filmmaking community of Nova Scotia has a great
new partner in the Paradise Sisters Film Society! Besides showing great
movies, The Paradise Cinema will be a resource for film-related
educational and community pursuits: a venue for film festivals, local film
studies programs, private or premiere screenings, corporate functions,
fundraisers, and cultural events. If your organization would like to help
realize this goal, you can show your support by contacting us to discuss
rental options.
