The Art Theater is a gem of a theater. It’s really old and has a beautiful frescoed ceiling. It was recently bought out and remodeled. They show recent releases and it’s a pretty cheap night out.
Porter County

This massive multiplex also gets most new releases but it’s hallmark is obsiouly it’s IMAX screen which is well worth the extra money.

The Cinemark in Valpo is much smaller and more intimate that the other huge multuplexes in Northwest Indiana. Much better suited for a quiet date out.
