WHO WE ARE
Cinematique of Daytona is an independent community-based, mission-driven, nonprofit arthouse cinema in the heart of historic Downtown Daytona Beach. We believe in the power of films to change communities and lives.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide intriguing, entertaining, superior quality films that audiences will otherwise not see in Volusia County.
We strive to ensure the films we present are a reflection of our diverse community and that prices are acceptable to the broadest possible audiences.
We’re collecting for our community!
Cinematique is proud to participate in both a holiday Food Drive and Toys for Tots. Donation boxes for each are now located in our lobby for your convenience.
If you’re able, please consider bringing a nonperishable food item or a new, unwrapped toy the next time you visit.
Together, we can help make the season a little brighter for local families.
Thank you for your generosity and community spirit!
Help Keep Arts & Culture Funded in Volusia County!
What’s happening: The Volusia County Council has continued to withhold Volusia County’s long-standing cultural grants. The funds are still in the budget—they’re just not assigned. As a nonpartisan community arts nonprofit, Cinematique works with everyone, and we’re asking for your help to ensure this modest but high-impact support continues for organizations across the county. The loss to us is just over $17,000.
Why it matters: These grants help keep doors open, lights on, and programs affordable—especially for students, families, and local artists. They’re reimbursement-based and documentation-driven, ensuring transparency and responsible use.
How you can help:
-
Sign & share the petition: tinyurl.com/SaveVolusiaCultureFunding
-
Email the County Council: Urge them to release this year’s budgeted cultural grants and maintain long-term cultural support. A brief personal story about why local arts matter goes a long way. (Resources and talking points: volusiaculture.org/save-volusias-arts-culture/)
-
Show up in person: The meetings are typically held Tuesdays (usually on the first and third of each month). If you can, attend and offer brief remarks in support of reinstating the grants. Public participation is held at the beginning of each meeting; 3 minutes/person.
-
Support locally: To help Cinematique navigate this uncertainty, consider a direct donation or bring a friend to a screening.​
Thank you for standing with us to keep arts and culture alive in Volusia County. We’ll continue working with our partners across the community and will share updates as soon as they’re available.
