Philosophy-Drink-Film Series (PDF)
Our “Philosophy | Drink | Film” series brings together thought-provoking cinema, lively conversation, and drinks from our full bar—featuring offerings from Lancaster Distilleries. Each film is introduced by York College Professor of Philosophy Dennis Weiss, setting the stage for engaging discussions. Hungry? You can order from Zoetropolis’ restaurant, and have your meal delivered right to the cinema. Stick around after each screening to share your insights and reflections with fellow patrons. Join us on the third Thursday of every month at 6:30 p.m. for an evening of cinema, conversation, food, drink, and fun!
