The Lincoln Theatre is a cultural resource for the greater Skagit County area. We serve as a venue for quality cinema, educational programs, live performing artists, and exhibitions of fine art. We also, on occasion, sponsor or co-sponsor events that we believe to be of interest to our community. In all cases, the Lincoln strives to ensure that your theatre experience is enjoyable and entertaining.

Cinematographers, educators, performing artists, fine artists and others present their programs free of censorship or interference from the Lincoln Theatre. We are not arbiters of taste. Neither do we purport to define the values of our community or its individual citizens. The views and opinions expressed are solely those of the authors, artists, and speakers and do not necessarily reflect or represent the views and opinions held by the Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, or members of the Lincoln Theatre Center Foundation.

We welcome your comments and suggestions. We invite you to join the Lincoln community. Get membership details here.

A Letter From the Lincoln Theatre Executive Director - Thomas Mayes

Though the cool spring may not have been any indication, summer time is finally here. One year ago the Lincoln was facing a very tough financial situation, and had to close down for July and August, Now we are not ‘out of the water’ financially, but we are happy to be able to bring programs to the community this summer. Films will be shown three days per week, and the highly popular Met opera series offers summer encores on Wednesdays and select Saturdays as well.
 
In our continuing evolution to the realities of today’s world, the Lincoln guide will now only show film dates, without the titles of each week’s film. The ‘coming soon’ film information is current; however flexibility from week to week will ensure we get the best possible film as quickly as possible. There are many ways to make sure you know what’s coming to the Lincoln screen, including:
 
-         Joining our weekly e-mail list, by clicking on the ‘Weekly Newsletter’ button on the left side of our website homepage, www.lincolntheatre.org
-         Visiting the Lincoln website for up-to-date film showings and descriptions.
-         Calling our recorded info line at 360-336-2858
-         Following us on Facebook (‘Lincoln Mount Vernon/’) or Twitter (‘ILoveTheLincoln’)
 
Changing our systems is never an easy process, but I hope you’ll see the results in better films closer to their public release date. And we hope to see more patrons out at our films enjoying the great acoustics and historic space each week!
