Jeanne Tripplehorn Instagram – HELP INDEPENDENT CINEMAS SURVIVE ⁣ ⁣ I am reposting my dearest @chloessevigny ‘s call for help because I couldn’t have said it better but I am also including a photo of my favorite independent theatre -@circlecinema in Tulsa, Oklahoma -who right now is struggling like all independent cinemas and will benefit from this campaign. Read below for more information. Linkin profile to donate. Thank you 🎥⁣ #arthouseamerica⁣ ⁣ Repost from @chloessevigny:⁣ ⁣ 🍿🎬🎟📽🔦📕📣 More than 150 independent movie theaters across the United States have temporarily closed to slow the spread of COVID-19. The Art-House America Campaign aims to provide financial relief to struggling independent cinemas across the country so they can pay staff and their essential bills and survive until it is safe to reopen their doors.⁣ ⁣ The Campaign was started with an initial donation of $50,000 from the Criterion Collection and Janus Films, and they are inviting friends of independent theaters and art houses everywhere to join them in this fundraising effort. The fund is being administered by the Art House Convergence, a nonprofit association dedicated to sustainability in community-based, mission-driven media exhibition.⁣ ⁣ Now is the time to stand up for the local movie houses we love. These theaters are fighting to retain valuable staff — programmers, educators, and managers — in the face of dramatically reduced revenue. Government support may be coming soon, but not soon enough. Research shows that even in normal times the average independent theater has only one month and twenty-six days of operating cash on hand, which means that we must act now. ⁣ @janus_films @criterioncollection ⁣ Link in bio to contribute. Even if you are not in a position to give right now, you can still contribute by sharing the Art-House America Campaign page on social media and celebrating local, independent art-house movie theaters. We’re going to want them back when all this is over.
