When the Main Art Theatre on the corner of 11 Mile and Main in Royal Oak closed suddenly in June 2021, it left a void in the community. Friends of the Main Art is an outgrowth of a grass roots effort to save the theater. We are a 501c3 non-profit, and our goal is to bring independent movies back to Royal Oak.
Do you have memories of the Main Art? See some memories our friends have shared.
Help preserve independent film in Royal Oak for the enjoyment of the greater Metro Detroit community. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
