The host of the Hyatts Film Festival the past 4 years, the Arena Grand closed its doors on Memorial Day, 2013. Just one week previous to Memorial Day, we had a overwhelming successful 4th Hyatts Film Festival. We had over 360 people attend the festival, everybody enjoyed themselves, ate popcorn, took pictures and watched movies.
The Arena Grand let me come into their theatre 5 hours early so that I could set up the tables, get the decorations up, roll out the red carpet and make sure that all my i's were dotted and my t's were crossed before guests arrived. It made me LOVE the set up of the Hyatts Film Festival. It was like Christmas day for me. I loved every minute of it, all the way to the lack of sleep I had and pot of coffee I drank the next morning.
Now the Arena Grand is gone. Studio Movie Grill is taking over sometime this summer. But the big question is, where will the Film Festival take place next May? My students worry, I worry, but I will find a place. I just hope the next host of the Hyatts Film Festival is half the host the Arena Grand was.
I will miss you.
Where can we go now? Studio Movie Grill? Let's hope they are still there in May. The Gateway Theater? I am talking to them now. What about an AMC or Cinemark or Rave theatre? Not sure that is going to be easy to get in these places? So I reached out to a wonderful place called the McCoy Center in New Albany. I hope my meeting goes well.
