Science on Screen

Zombies walk from the film Dawn of the Dead.

Science on Screen® creatively pairs screenings of classic, cult, and documentary films with lively introductions by notable figures from the world of science, technology, and medicine. In 2011, the Coolidge Corner Theatre Foundation received a $150,000 grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to expand Science on Screen® to independent cinemas nationwide. Since the launch of the national Science on Screen initiative in 2011, the Coolidge and the Sloan Foundation have awarded 237 grants to 86 nonprofit cinemas across the country. IU Cinema is honored to be one of the 2019–2020 Science on Screen award recipients, having previously received the honor in 2014–15, 2016–17, and 2017–18.
