Supporters of the Coral Gables Art Cinema visited Bacardi USA headquarters on Thursday, Nov. 29, for an exclusive preview of the cinema’s upcoming fundraising gala.

Guests enjoyed appetizers and hors d’oeuvres and heard from cinema leadership about plans for the “Some Like It Hotter!” red-carpet fundraiser coming up on Jan. 19 at the Coral Gables Museum.

The cinema, 260 Aragon Ave., has now completed two full years of presenting independent, alternative and international films in both 35mm and theater-quality digital projection. Cinema programs also include special events for families and children, film festivals and educational activities.

Tickets to the Jan. 19 gala are $150 per person; for more information and to purchase tickets visit www.gablescinema.com or call 786-472-2249.
