About Avon Theatre
Nestled in the heart of downtown Stamford, Avon Theatre Film Center is a nonprofit, community-supported cinema presenting independent, art, and foreign films. With two intimate screening rooms—House A delivering 271 seats and House B with 242 seats—the Avon offers a curated, approachable moviegoing experience. The venue frequently hosts filmmaker Q&As, audiences discussions, and programs like Movies That Build Community and Avon on Tour. A renovation is planned for 2026 to enhance the beloved neighborhood cinema.
