IFC Center

Formerly The Waverly Theater, IFC Center is a brand new haven for fans of independent film in New York. Rainbow Media has positioned the theater as an extension of its cable channel IFC (Independent_Film_Channel) as IFC will own the building. IFC has converted the historic Waverly Theater building, which was originally built as a church in the early 1800's, into an architecturally distinctive, state-of-the-art facility featuring three theaters each equipped to screen 35mm and high-definition digital video, digital editing suites, a restaurant, and a meeting area. In addition, the Center will be the home for special screenings, educational programs and television broadcasts. IFC's weekly series, formerly titled "At The Angelika" (which originated from The Angelika Theater in New York) relocated to IFC Center and thus the show has been retitled "At The IFC".
