Criterion Series

THE CRITERION COLLECTION was established in 1984, with a mission to preserve important classic and independent films from around the world, making them available to watch in analog and digital formats In 2017, Criterion launched a series of original programming for the Criterion Channel called Art-House America, to showcase independently run arthouse theaters around the U.S. 

Now, with their support of the Strand Theatre, Criterion is furthering their support of community movie theaters by sponsoring a year-long series of movies. This allows the Strand to screen a wide range of acclaimed, hard-to-see movies, and turn these screenings into fundraising events for the much beloved 100 year old theater.

Each screening is introduced by TCM’s Alicia Malone or Strand House Manager Liz McLeod.
