yahoo!Silents Are Golden: Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Thanhouser Film Company
| Date | Oct 28, 2009 to Nov 28, 2009 |

| Description |
Forget Tinsel Town: at the dawn of American cinema, the classics were made right here in Westchester. (Did you know that D.W. Griffiths had a studio in Mamaroneck?) New Rochelle High School’s Museum of Arts & Culture pays homage to that era with photos, artifacts, and ephemera of Thanhouser Studio, a New Rochelle institution that cranked out more than 1,000 silent films between 1909 and 1917. The Museum also is hosting a film screening with live accompaniment and a lecture with Ned Thanhouser, the studio founder’s grandson, on October 28. |
