Keep It Cool at the Hi-Pointe

Streaming options expand, but the true essence of film thrives in shared experiences. Cinema St. Louis (CSL), known for events like the St. Louis International Film Festival (SLIFF), embraces this post-pandemic reality. Acquiring the Hi-Pointe Theatre in 2022 was pivotal in fostering community engagement. We aim to transform it into a storytelling hub, offering affordable prices and diverse programming, keeping the magic of cinema alive.

Since 2023, we've hosted film festivals, competitions, master classes, and free programs for local students at the iconic 102-year-old Theatre. Thanks to last year's Give StL Day donations, we reached our highest fundraising goal yet to "Raise the Roof." However, upgrading the heating and cooling systems is crucial and must be done at the same time. So let's "Keep it Cool" at the Hi-Pointe. Your involvement is vital as we aim for our $40,000 goal for the 2024 Give StL Day, ensuring the preservation of timeless film programming in a comfortable environment.
