The Film Lab Expansion Plans

The Film Lab’s renovation of the historic veteran’s hall is coming in Spring 2021!

Thanks to the kindness and generosity of The Film Lab community, the Knight Foundation, and the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, we are moving forward with our expansion into the second story of our building. 

We are grateful for the resilience and support of our community during this crazy time. In the spirit of New Normal or ways to gather in a pandemic, we have re-imagined our architectural and interior design plans with social distancing, state of the art air filtration, and sanitation guidelines. We plan to offer our space to the local arts and entertainment community to host events for those who have lost their space due to the recession or had to close due to COVID capacity constraints. Our new plans provide flexibility with our seating, screen, and stage capabilities, to allow for a variety of cinema, live theatrical performances, educational programming, and more.
