Cinema Club
CINEMA CLUB
It’s like book club for cinephiles!
On the second Saturday of each month at 11am, we invite MSP Film Society Members to watch a selected movie with us at The Main Cinema and join a discussion led by a member of our programming team, a film critic, and/or a subject expert.
Cinema Club movie selections range from sneak previews to awards contenders to classic movies that will have you talking. Be ready to share your unique perspective on what we screen with other attendees.
Cinema Club is FREE for MSP Film Society Members – so join or renew today to get in on the action! Some screenings of current releases may also be made available to general audiences at regular ticket prices.
