Nicolas PrattJune 5, 2014A great selection of independent, foreign & classic films. Really inexpensive snacks and a wide selection of alcoholic drinks.
Social News NetworkAugust 11, 2013A great place to catch a classic film. The original Silver Theatre is an art deco masterpiece designed and constructed by John Eberson in 1938 and renovated in 2003. Student tickets are $9.- Jon HusseyJuly 5, 2012Huge, ornate theater with tons of room at the seats, great movies. Go see an indie flick and grab a beer.
Shawn CookMay 5, 2016I dig this theater. Great snack options. I went to a viewing of Under the Cherry Moon which was directed by Prince. The theater made the experience awesome. Love that movie though.
ZipcarJuly 21, 2011If you prefer Bergman over blockbusters, this is the place for you. With a variety of festivals, classic film retrospectives, and innovative educational programming, it’s one of our favorite big scree
Don't miss seeing a movie here with a good beer & really good popcorn! It's the only theater popcorn I'll eat.

Design VibezAugust 17, 2011Thinking Sundance, not sequels? AFI Silver's your best bet. A real learning experience. And DC Caribbean FilmFest has been hosted here for the past few years - during Caribbean Heritage Month in June.
MarylandJune 20, 2012Make plans to view the screenings of the 48 Hour Film Project each year, a competition for do-it-yourself filmmakers.- Design VibezJune 1, 2012DC C'bean Filmfest from 6/1 to 6/4, 2012. Bonus: the dessert reception in honor of the 50th Independence anniversaries of Jamaica AND Trinidad and Tobago (big year!) after "Fire in Babylon," Friday!
- 4sqMOCOSeptember 3, 2011The original Silver Theatre was designed by John Eberson and constructed in 1938. Restoration and expansion were completed in 2003.
The original theater (Theater 1) is the greatest place to see a film in the DC area.
Now OwlFebruary 26, 2011Like most other theaters, concessions is way overpriced. At $1.75 + $4 a cup of tea and small popcorn is the cheapest "meal deal" and satisfies my need to accompany movie viewing w. noshing.
Erica WatersFebruary 6, 2013Hot dogs are supposedly Nathan's which made me excited... only to find out they're microwaved. :( Nice place for a movie though!
There's beer at the concessions here- sit in the way back for the most comfort...
Girl Scouts of Central MarylandMarch 29, 2012Bid on movie passes from AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center and support local Girl Scouts! Online auction begins April 4. http://bit.ly/DWAuction2012
Out of consideration for the dozens of people in line, please don't gather just outside the theater door to loudly discuss the ending of the movie.
