We are pleased to announce that our movie "Art in the City" will screen at the Palladium Theater on Saturday Dec 9, 2017 at 3pm in the main auditorium and we are wanting to
Fill the Palladium! It truly has been an Amazing year for this locally made feature length film that was written, directed, produced, and stars natives and community residents of the beautiful city of St. Petersburg. Since it's debut screening in January this movie has toured the city screening at locations such as; The Sundial Muvico 19, The Historic Royal Theater, USF St.Pete, The Studio@620, The Dr. Carter G Woodson African History Museum, St. Pete City Hall, and The American Stage Theater Company.
This opportunity to screen at the Palladium is a huge win and door opener for the local arts community and we need your support to help us show the city of St. Petersburg that the local arts and artist have a place in our City. To reach the goal of filling the Palladium we are reaching out to businesses, individuals, and organizations to help us by Sponsoring A Row in honor of a Veteran, Homeless citizen, Artist, or Youth of Tomorrow for $100. We want to give as many people the opportunity to see the movie as possible and understand that there are those who would like to attend the screening, but may not necessarily have the means and b
y this effort we will be able to give away tickets to allow veterans, youth, and less fortunate individuals who would like to see the movie the opportunity to do so and be apart of the experience. For your kindness you will receive:- Logo of Business or Organization on all printed material
- Logo on screen with multi media advertisements prior to screening
- Named Row Section in honor of beloved veteran, fallen soldier, artist, loved one, youth, company, or person of your choice
- Reserved seating for you and 3 guest in the auditorium
