HOW WE ARE THANKFUL THIS THANKSGIVING
Dear Cinema Supporter,
In a few words, we're thankful for YOU, and we thought it a good time to update you on our progress and the challenges that remain for us.
As you know, our volunteer workforce has been working very hard for the last 2 1/2 years on first purchasing, and now rebuilding, a bigger and better Sag Harbor Cinema. Its historic presence in the Village will be preserved in a way which will also improve it significantly.
Like all construction projects, although we've been right on the nose in terms of certain expenses, we will still have to raise more money than we originally anticipated, in spite of the wonderful purchase of façade and use easements by the Town of Southampton. The design enhancements bringing the theater up to state-of-the-art standard are more expensive than our consultants originally thought. Also, with the help of our structural engineers, we are only now finalizing the necessary work to be done to ensure that the integrity of what was left of the building after the fire becomes structurally sound, because it was discovered to be more compromised than the initial survey. And finally, building the 3rd floor for maximum use for offices and VR possibilities is a great benefit but also an added economic challenge. Its costs mean that we’re looking to the future for coming generations, and that’s what this project has been about from the beginning. And we will have staffing and operational costs that we hope will soon be necessary!
We still have naming rights available, including seats to name, and we hope you will consider a donation in someone’s honor, or your own legacy in the great Village of Sag Harbor, by being a vital part of this great undertaking.
So this Thanksgiving, we're thanking ALL of you who've given so generously to this whole project; to our First Responders for always being there for our community; to the Town of Southampton for making such a huge difference in our fundraising efforts; and to all the inspiring enthusiasm our community has shown for the identity we've begun to forge with our film series and events.
We celebrate with you, and hope you will continue to raise the Cinema back up with us! Happy Thanksgiving!

Sunday, December 16th 4:00pm: Santa, Cookies, Cider, and Caroling 5:00pm: It's a Wonderful Life! Note: The Community Café mentioned in the poster is a wonderful new initiative on the part of the Christ Episcopal Church to offer a restaurant-style meal once a week to those in need or who are just in need of company! |

ED HOLLANDER RECEIVES COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD
We were delighted to honor Edmund Hollander last Sunday, October 29th, for his extraordinarily generous service to our community. Besides our Sag Harbor Partnership Community Service Award, he also received proclamations from Suffolk County Legislator Bridget Fleming and Sag Harbor Mayor Sandra Schroeder for his volunteer work.
The event was hosted beautifully and deliciously at Baron's Cove Map Room, and we thank managers Tara Rothberg and Suzanne Behringer for their coordination. Additional thanks to Sag Harbor Florist for providing gorgeous bouquets for the tables.
Ed Hollander's contributions include the "Oaks for Oakland" clean-up for Oakland Cemetery, a similar clean-up of the St. David AME Zion Church Cemetery (both with the help of wonderful local volunteer tree companies), his designs for the proposed waterfront park at the base of the bridge, newly designed grounds for the Sag Harbor Whaling and HIstorical Museum (done in collaboration with Edwina von Gal of the Perfect Earth Project), and work begun for the revitalization of Long Wharf for the Village of Sag Harbor.
See the Sag Harbor Express for an article on the event.

We are sad to inform you of the passing of Ed Victor, a remarkable member of our community. Ed was a literary agent to the stars, and friend of many as well. His widow, Carol Ryan, has most graciously suggested that donations be made to the Cinema project in lieu of flowers, gifts, etc.
We are deeply moved by her thinking of us at this time, and offer heartfelt condolences. Carol and Ed were one of our favorite couples in the community.
Please let us know if your donation is in his honor.
