A message from the chair of Friends of The Birks Cinema, Muriel Dunbar:

We did it! The refurbishment is complete and the cinema is open for business from 19th April 2013. We hope you will love it as much as we do. If you would like to find out about what's happening and what's on the programme. Tickets will be on sale early April, please go to The Birks Cinema website

Meantime, the Friends of the Birks Cinema is considering ways in which we can continue to support the social objectives of the cinema and bring a wider range of cultural opportunities to the area. We're getting feedback from our members and will be coming up with proposals before our AGM in August. Sign up here if you want to be kept up to date with 'Friends' activities.
