For Black History Month, we want to shine a light on some of the diverse films that help illustrate the depth and richness of Black culture and heritage. Join us for a series of selected films by local film enthusiast and founding Cinema I/O member Omaya Jones for a viewing of rich works that result from and celebrate black culture and community. 

About Cinema I/O...

Cinema I/O is a nomadic, non-profit microcinema currently housed within Good Weather (Little Rock) at 420 Byrd St.. The “I/O” in our name stands for “input/output,” which reflects our mission; fostering community engagement through diverse film programming that inspires creative action and dialogue. Our aim is to present underrepresented and underseen films in Little Rock.

Officially founded in 2023 by a small board of film enthusiasts after an invitation by Good Weather to share its space, Cinema I/O began as an offshoot of the Arkansas Times Film Series, curated by Omaya Jones since 2016 with help from programmers Michael Carpenter and Dave Thiedig and hosted by Riverdale 10 VIP Cinema in Little Rock.
