Some of you may already have heard about this, but we felt we needed to post this information not only to inform our readers about the closing, but to let the folks at IMAC know that the theater will be missed. Thank you for sharing your stage with us over the years.

IMAC Closes
It is our job to inform our readers about the wonderful places to go and things to see on Long Island. Last year we told you about the IMAC Theater in Huntington (IMAC). This wonderful venue provided Long Islanders (and those from all over) with some truly phenomenal concerts and shows for almost 30 years. There is no question that the IMAC brought musical legends to Long Island, and that the theater itself was a cultural center. That is why we are sad to report that this very special Long Island theater closed permanently this month.

Cinema Arts Centre
Move over Angelika, here comes Cinema Arts!
Located in Huntington, Long Island, Cinema Arts Centre is the place on Long Island to see independent films. If you don't believe us, just take a look at this A-list of upcoming special events including an evening with David Lynch and a visit from animator, Bill Plympton.
For those of you who may need an education, that would be the David Lynch who created the films, Twin Peaks, Mulholland Drive, Lost Highway, Blue Velvet, Eraserhead. Do we need to go on? Then there's Bill Plympton, the two-time Academy Award nominated animator who premiered his film Idiots and Angels at this year's Tribeca Film Festival (you may have heard of it), on April 26th.
When you go to watch your favorite flick, also check out the Sky Room Café for a quick snack and the outdoor garden area to see the interesting sculptures.
Visit the Cinema Arts Centre website for further information about other great happenings at this cool venue. Oh, and show some support if you can! There are many ways to do this, including becoming a member, volunteering your time or donating to the organization. Giving always feels so good!
