Known as the architectural centerpiece of Gainesville’s Historic downtown, the Hippodrome State Theatre is featuring a new film series on architecture. The theater partnered with the American Institute of Architects Gainesville to produce a film series that showcases the effect architecture has on everyday lives. The board of AIA Gainesville will fund three to four architecture films per year, which will be shown at the Hippodrome at 25 SE 2nd Place, said Matthew Cugini, Hippodrome cinema program manager.
The theater hopes to show viewers how architecture can influence communities across the world, Cugini said.
“It affects how we travel around town, what places we enjoy, what feels comfortable in the built environment and what doesn’t,” Cugini said.
