For nearly a century, Tampa Theatre has been a gathering place, bringing people together in the heart of downtown Tampa. Community bonds, fast friendships, and even love affairs have all been born out of illuminating, shared experiences at the majestic movie palace.
In that grand tradition, Tampa Theatre is proud to announce the return of the Black Love Classic
Movie Series, presented by TECO. For its second season, the series will center around the theme
“Home is Where the Heart Is.” These four films – chosen in collaboration with the City of Tampa’s
Community Engagement & Partnerships Department – explore journeys of discovery and the roads
that lead back, as told by Black filmmakers and diverse casts.
Doors open at 2:00 p.m. The film screening begins at 3:00 p.m.
Guests attending Black Love Classics Series films are invited to raise a glass for
good, courtesy of series sponsor Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey. The company – which is founded,
owned and led by a Black woman, and is named after the first known African American master
distiller, Nearest Green – will donate a dollar for each Old Fashioned cocktail sold in a pledge to
raise up to $1 million for Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
