The Silent Film Project
Generously funded by a Special Events Award from the University of Minnesota Imagine Fund, The Twin Cities Silent Film Project is dedicated to curating archival silent film screenings across the Twin Cities. It is estimated that over 80% of all silent films are now lost. Twin Cities Silent Film Project revives unseen treasures from the archive—with original, live music and multi-disciplinary conversations—to bring local arts, humanities, and cultural communities together over a shared love of silent cinema.
