This Giving Tuesday consider supporting your favorite video store (we hope it's us—but even if it isn't, still do it!). Arts nonprofits are dealing with a lot, and every dollar helps more than you know! Thank you for keeping us going. 📼 ❤️ scarecrow.app.neoncrm.com/forms/giving...

It’s still #GivingTuesday! Please consider supporting the Grand Illusion with a membership or donation.

A membership gets you a discount at almost all of our screenings. A donation will help us build an even grander Grand Illusion. We’re still looking!

If you missed our free screening of POWWOW HIGHWAY you can still support United Indians of All Tribes Foundation. Please donate to UIATF and the Labateyah Youth Home, which provides crucial access to a safe & nurturing environment for homeless youth.

On 11/6 we’re co-presenting a free screening of POWWOW HIGHWAY with United Indians of All Tribes Foundation at @siffnews.bsky.social Film Center.

Happy Video Store Day! We open at 11 for members, 12 for all! Hourly flash sales, food, music, general great vibes. 📀 📼 🍿

We have t-shirts for sale! @sethbeastmeat.bsky.social (w/ assist from Phill Tuma) created this unholy union of projector & projectionist for us & we couldn’t be happier. $25

We'll definitely have them at NWFF. SIFF & Here-After just depends on logistics (we’re all volunteers after all).

This Thursday at 10pm the Grand Illusion and Here-After proudly present @theonion.com's new film JEFFREY EPSTEIN: BAD PEDOPHILE.

Last year, you all heeded the SOS call and supported us in historic numbers, with 7k+ contributions and $1M raised. We're getting SO close to our SOS goal, but we need you to help push us over the edge so we can make the vital changes to make us sustainable!

Tonight's Best Film winner, Anora, was given an incredible spotlight by Seattle's @grandillusioncinema.org, who needs donations and support while looking for a new physical home. A quiet room for a community of art lovers to take in a quality 35mm print: We need spaces like that more than ever.

We're truly honored by the outpouring of support since we announced our plans to relocate the cinema. For 20 years we've operated as the only volunteer-run nonprofit cinema in the United States and we intend to do it for 20 more! Donate to our relocation fund: grandillusioncinema.org/support/#don...
