Welcome to Brattleboro Arts Initiative

What a spring it has been. With the help of many generous friends, we completed the renovation of Latchis 4, our beautiful new movie and event space.  In one stroke we revived a historic part of the building, unearthed the past in the form of lovely decorative moldings, and added another cultural venue to the Latchis collection of theatres in our lively downtown.

Now Brattleboro Arts Initiative announces more exciting news.

In a special joint venue with the Brattleboro Music Center, we are raising funds to be able to broadcast the Metropolitan Opera Live in HD.  Many of you asked for this programming, and it's great to say that we're getting closer to the Latchis being on the Met Opera circuit.

The other news is that the Ballroom Theatre upstairs will soon be outfitted to show 3D movies.  There are a lot of them these days, and as a community resource, we like to make sure we always have something for everyone.

"Something for everyone" is really our mantra.  Brattleboro Arts Initiative works hard to preserve the Latchis as a place to welcome all manner of arts and artists, tens of thousands of movie-goers and hotel guests annually, and daily shoppers, diners, and brew pub aficionados.  Whether investing in grand opera or 3D action, or our next building project, we are always on the look-out for ways to serve Brattleboro and contribute to the economic vitality of our downtown.

The Metropolitan Opera: Live in High-Definition

Latchis Theatre

Fall 2010

Greetings!

If you've pined for opera close to home, if you wished the Latchis would bring in the Met, if you wondered if you'd ever see the day: pine, wish and wonder no more!

Brattleboro Arts Initiative and the Brattleboro Music Center announce a special joint venture to bring the Metropolitan Opera broadcasts to the Latchis Theatre.We will host the 11-opera season live on Saturdays at 1:00 p.m., and show Encore presentations on Sundays at 11:00 a.m.  This means opera lovers in Brattleboro will be able to experience performances at the same time as opera lovers in Lincoln Center itself, as they are simultaneously transmitted by satellite.
