AFI Silver Theatre, Art Deco cinema in Silver Spring, Maryland.

The AFI Silver Theatre features three screening rooms with modern projection systems, stadium seating arrangements, and the third-largest commercial movie screen in Washington DC.

Architect John Eberson designed this 1,100-seat theatre in 1938, which underwent complete restoration in 2001 after standing empty for several years.

The theatre screens more than 600 films annually, including first-run features, classic movies, archival prints, and international cinema from different countries.

The facility provides wheelchair accessibility, reloadable gift cards for tickets and concessions, and membership options through the Silver Cinema Club loyalty program.

The American Film Institute operates this theatre complex, preserving its original Art Deco elements while incorporating current technology and comfort standards.
