A top notch indie theater. Quirky and with all the latest. Upstairs in an old downtown building, getting there is half the fun.

A great little independent theatre based on the variety of non-mainstream but excellent films, with a wide variety of genre - both domestic and foreign films. We go to the Parkside once or twice a month - and to a syndicate theatre maybe twice a year. A true asset of the community!

This is an eclectic decorated movie venue. The theater is located above a book shop and features several top notch movies in several areas. In the lobby you can purchase refreshments and once seated in ones movie of choice it is quite relaxing and comfortable.
