Films build community through shared experiences.
NOMA presents a series of films—selected by award-winning producer and filmmaker Meryl Poster—followed by insightful special guests. Don’t miss your chance to revisit or discover modern classics on the big screen and gain behind-the-scenes insight into the film industry from leading figures.
Discussions will draw connections to art more broadly and celebrate cinema as an essential art form.
NOMA will screen a 2024 black-and-white remaster of Basquiat (1996), a black-and-white restoration of the original 1996 film, for this program. The screening will be followed by a conversation with director Julian Schnabel via Zoom and Poster. Doors open at 6:30 pm, and the film screening starts at 7:00 pm.
For this screening of Basquiat, guests will also have the option of purchasing an additional ticket to a seated dinner at Café NOMA before the film. Details will be announced soon.
