FULL SCHEDULE

THE BFC MISSION

The KONSTANTINO SPANOUDIS iKON Collection

The iKON Collection is one of the largest in private hands, and like any private collection it says as much about the collector as what is being collected.   Anyone can post their list of film favorites on the internet, sharing their personal likes and dislikes with the world.  The iKON Collection is Konstantino’s list, and its treasures line his walls.  In 2024 many of those treasures can be found right here on our walls.

NOW OPEN AT THE BFC MUSEUM  & ALWAYS FREE!

“The Barrymore Film Center essentially functions as a local history museum whose subject is not, say, immigration or the Civil War, but the growth and development of moving pictures. Like other museums and historical sites, it uses its history to look forward, to link the past with the present through such activities as film screenings, museum exhibitions, publications and public events.”

Dr. Richard Koszarski, BFC Museum Curator
