Robinson Film Center to Unveil Newly Renovated Event Space
Shreveport, LA – Robinson Film Center will unveil its newly renovated event space at an open house on August 11th, from 5-7 pm.
RFC offers the second-floor multi-purpose space to the community at affordable rates, allowing guests to host events such as parties, banquets, corporate trainings, and seminars. The center also offers rentals of its theaters, and a full on-site catering service. RFC’s location downtown, along with being the home of Abby Singer’s Bistro, makes it an attractive location for events of all types and sizes.
“This space is unbeatable in terms of cost and location,” said Wendell Riley, Executive Director. “However, it has gotten a needed facelift, with new floors and equipment that matches the intended versatility of the room.”
Longtime visitors to RFC are familiar with the event space, as RFC regularly hosts programming such as the Date Night series, along with film-related classes and summer camps there. The space is also the annual site for the Prize Foundation’s Louisiana Film Prize Top 20 announcement. “Everyone at RFC is excited about the new features in the room,” said Rich Hansil, Education Director at RFC. “We couldn’t have done this without the time and effort put forth by our Board to help us revamp the space to make our programming, classes and camps more impactful while making it more appealing overall.”
"We want everyone to check out the space, whether they are looking for a cool wedding reception venue or a place for a corporate retreat,” said Riley. “And of course, in addition to the great food from Abby Singer’s, we have awesome popcorn.”
