It's in our mission - "To Preserve the Historic Grandin Theatre as a cultural and educational resource devoted to film and the cinematic arts for Western Virginia."

The Grandin Theatre Foundation is committed to ensuring that our facility is not only about entertainment, but is also about educating our patrons, guests, and our community's youth.  The cinematic arts medium has the ability to provide informative, inspiring, shocking, and socially relevant material.  The Grandin Theatre has a history of providing documentaries, thought provoking historical pieces, and art house style films that make you think. 

In a heavily saturated market of mass media films filled with pyrotechnics and computer generated images, we'll continue to be committed to providing programming that speaks to the educational importance of film.
