It’s been two years since the Lincoln Plaza Cinema shut its doors and caused catastrophic waves of shock felt around the Upper West Side, which even prompted Vulture to write a eulogy for the cinema.

The organization aims “to find a permanent space on the Upper West Side to create and operate a not-for-profit neighborhood cinema devoted to quality independent and foreign films.”
