United Palace | Sep 27, 2019

Hi Regino! The United Palace was built in 1930 as one of five Loew’s “Wonder Theatres” across the boroughs and New Jersey. The final first-run film screening was in 1969 with 2001: A Space Odyssey. The building was purchased (and saved from demolition) by the United Palace of Spiritual Arts later that year and has functioned as a spiritual arts center for nearly 50 years. In 2013, monthly film screenings returned to the Palace with state-of-the-art projection and sound equipment. And with 3,400 seats and a 50-foot screen, it's a movie-lover's dream. We will be screening The Wiz this Sunday at 4:30pm, in honor of it's 40th Anniversary--if you're in NYC, check it out! For a more detailed history on the United Palace, and for our calendar of events, please visit UnitedPalace.org.

Thanks for the detailed information about the Palace. I'm in Miami FL, with family in NYC. I'll make it a point to come visit. Best wishes!
