Ragtag Cinema

Ragtag Cinema is an independent theater in downtown Columbia that programs documentaries, international films, and art-house movies across multiple screens. The renovated building at 10 Hitt Street houses the theater along with other screening facilities designed for diverse audiences.

The theater was founded in 2000 as a nonprofit venture committed to independent and international cinema. Over the years it became a cornerstone for film culture in Columbia, drawing cinephiles and casual viewers alike.

The cinema partners with local universities and community groups to host educational film series and post-screening talks where audiences can engage with filmmakers. These events have made it a gathering place for people who care about cinema beyond just watching films.

The venue opens about 30 minutes before each screening, and there is parking available at the nearby city garage on Hitt and Cherry streets. The downtown location makes it easy to reach on foot or by public transportation from most of the city.

The theater operates its own café serving snacks and beverages during screenings. It also regularly offers open caption showings to ensure accessibility for deaf and hard of hearing audience members.
