Wayfarer Theaters Uplifting films, events, and conversation—to strengthen bonds of friendship in the community.

Wayfarer Theaters is a new collective space for films, live events, and conversation, designed to strengthen the bonds of friendship in our community. We'll offer a mixture of old and new films intended to uplift our spirits, including children’s movies with accompanying activities on weekends, and regularly scheduled talks and Q&As with filmmakers. On February 10, 2023, our inaugural flagship theater will open at the Renaissance Place in Highland Park, Illinois.
