Plymouth Arts Centre, Independent art cinema in Plymouth, England
Plymouth Arts Centre is a modern venue located at Arts University Plymouth featuring a cinema space with seating for around 118 people. The auditorium operates with professional sound and projection systems and hosts regular film screenings throughout the week.
The Plymouth Arts Centre was founded in 1947 and originally occupied a Grade II listed building on Looe Street. It was established with support from the Arts Council of Great Britain and has since grown into a significant cultural venue.
The venue prioritizes films directed by women and productions featuring strong female leads through its F-Rating system. This programming choice shapes what audiences encounter when they visit.
Access depends on screening schedules and program availability, with university students and staff receiving discounts when they present valid identification. Visitors should check ahead to see what films are scheduled and plan their visit accordingly.
The venue organizes open-air film screenings at different locations around Plymouth during summer months. These outdoor events offer a completely different experience from the indoor cinema space.
