UWM Union Cinema

The UWM Union Cinema is a an inviting 300 seat movie theatre that screens unique and well loved films for students, faculty, and community members within the Milwaukee area.

A gathering place for anyone with a love of adventure, comedy, film, and history, the UWM Union Cinema has movies for everyone. Milwaukee premiers of highly acclaimed independent films occur weekly alongside popular Hollywood films and informative documentaries.

Our film series include International Cinema, Documentary Frontiers, Cinema Classics, Hollywood Films, Experimental Tuesdays, Locally Grown, and Share the Earth Environmental Films.

We are also privileged to host many annual and semi-annual film festivals including the Milwaukee LGBT Film and Video Festival, Annual Festival of Films in French, Annual Italian Film Festival USA, Student Film and Video Festival, and many many more!

Not only do we have a stunning lineup of films each week, we also have the unique capability to screen 16mm and 35mm film prints. This means that many of our films are shown in their truly breathtaking, analog form. Watching films in this form is a visual delight that is becoming more and more rare as many movie theatres convert entirely to digital projection.

Popcorn, soda, tea, coffee, and soda are sold from thirty minutes before to twenty minutes after each film begins.
