Description
The Gaythorne Cinema, opened in 1938, was more than just a movie theater. It hosted air raid meetings during WWII, political events, and even a bowling club. After a storm, it became a relief hub, raising funds for recovery. In 1981, it hosted Brisbanes first gay film festival. Despite closing in 2004, its legacy as a community heartbeat lives on in local memories.
