Cinema Nairn, the community initiative reviving big screen entertainment in the Highland seaside town, has revealed its programme for the next six months.
The project has also received a major boost in the form of a financial donation from the local Rotary Club.
Starting on Saturday 20 February, films will be screened regularly at Nairn Community Centre with six confirmed so far, ranging from classic 1950s movies ‘The Searchers’ and ‘The Sweet Smell of Success’ to two of last year’s hits, ‘Moon’ and ‘Looking for Eric’.
Cinema Nairn will also programme films with a literary theme during Nairn Book & Arts Festival week in June.
