This branch of the Portland Art Museum, which is actually housed within the Portland Art Museum downstairs, hosts the Portland International Film Festival each February and March. They also host other events in Portland throughout the year, including on the roof tops of popular Portland hotels. The rest of the year you can find documentaries, independent films, art films and foreign films showing every week. It is a treasured institution where you can see a black-and-white, silent French film accompanied by original, live cello music. They even offer film classes for those looking to take their love of films to a new level.
