The owners of the Art House Theater have announced plans to re-model the space so that their Brewhouse Restaurant can expand, while potentially pushing out the Provincetown Film Society from being able to host their International Film Festival at the venue, as well as Mark Cortale Productions from being able to present the incredible entertainment he does at this fantastic venue.

#SAVETHEARTHOUSE
We the undersigned artists, theatre patrons and community members believe that losing The Art House in Provincetown, MA would be a cultural catastrophe. We plead with owners Ben deRuyter, Paul deRuyter and Bruce MacGregor to reconsider their plan to turn The Art House into a brewery. We agree with the Provincetown Banner editorial that “the town, by whatever legal means it has at its disposal, should block this plan.” We understand the owners are now considering a re-model that includes a new performance venue of some sort and would like to strongly encourage them to keep two separate theaters with screens so that the amount of live performance programming and film exhibition can stay intact. We hope that Mark Cortale Productions and the the Provincetown Film Society & Festival are able to continue presenting all of the incredible film, art, and performance they've been providing the town for years.
