The a/perture provides an intimate cinema experience located in one of Winston’s historic buildings. It’s always a pleasure to view films at the a/perture.

4.5 screens, 231 seats, local concessions, beer + wine, and a whole bunch of movies maybe you’ve heard of. a/perture cinema is a 501c3 non-profit art house cinema whose mission is to entertain and engage the community through the art of film by showcasing informative, educational, thought-provoking, and inspiring films—the films that enrich our lives, engage our minds, promote diversity, and build community.
