CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA — The founding owners of the Vinegar Hill Theatre have placed the theatre on the market. A 1976 reprogramming of a 1949 Modern-style Studebaker auto dealership, the 219-seat single-screen theater is not historic per se, but has had a great influence on the cultural life of Charlottesville.
A 1997 addition to the building houses a 42-seat restaurant with a 20-seat patio.
The theatre is currently operating as Charlottesville’s only exclusive first-run art cinema, as it has since its opening. It has two 35mm projectors with manual changeover. The restaurant is also currently operating. For more information, please visit www.vinegarhilltheatre.com/gallery.

ART DECO Theater Seats for SALE!
South Central Pennsylvania.
These seats came from a theater that was originally designed to present vaudeville and silent films in the early 1920’s. The theater just went under major renovations, and performs now as one of the leading arts presenter in south central Pennsylvania.
There are about 200 seats, in decent condition. The original Spanish leather was replaced at some point in time with a beautiful antique light olive velvet. Fabric still looks very good. They are individual seats with wooden arm rests. The Art Deco motiff is predominantely present through all the metal work and base. They come in sets of 4-5 seats. They are definitely a jewel! Pictures available upon request. They need to go fast!
If you are interested, please contact me at
