Author Topic: Raven Film Center, Healsburg, CA Open? Mike Croaro Master Film Handler Posts: 394 From: Millbrae, CA Registered: Apr 2005 posted 05-25-2006 03:13 PM                     Hi Folks: Is the Raven Film Center in Healsburg, CA still open? It is listed as such on Cinematour & Cinema Treasures but I thought it had closed. Thanks, Mike  |  IP: Logged Dan Zastrow Film Handler Posts: 38 From: San Rafael,CA.

A not-for-profit is doing stage productions and live musical events. The four screen Raven Film Center on Center street, built in 1994, has been closed since October of last year but will be opening in June under new management.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

It's something every Petaluma-ite should consider essential. In his column last thursday (5/18), Holley reported that the word on the street in Healdsburg was that the Tocchini's were close to a deal on the Raven Film Center. No word on the actual opening date though.  |  IP: Logged Mike Croaro Master Film Handler Posts: 394 From: Millbrae, CA Registered: Apr 2005 posted 05-25-2006 07:58 PM                     Hi Folks: Thanks for the information. I was suprised that it had closed. Went there a lot from 1996-1998. Glad to see that it is re-opening. Mike  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

Last I heard, you were in talks to take it over. Oh well. -Aaron  |  IP: Logged Carl Martin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1424 From: Oakland, CA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-26-2006 04:02 AM                        ah, always nice to see someone expanding their company rather than fixing problems at existing sites <ahem>elmwood 2 & 3</ahem>.  |  IP: Logged Dan Zastrow Film Handler Posts: 38 From: San Rafael,CA. USA Registered: May 2006 posted 06-21-2006 07:10 PM                        I returned home from my trip today to find an email from Corey Tocchini saying that they plan to be back on screen at the Raven June 30th. They promise a very strong line-up of product. They also plan on making use of the one room with the roll up screen and back stage to do live shows. For the sake of the town we hope they can make a good go at it.  |  IP: Logged
