Anoli' Theater

The Anoli' Theater has been renovated to include new lighting and technology upgrades as well as an expanded stage for live events.

While the Anoli' Theater is primarily a place to tell First American stories through the art of film, it also serves as a venue for other events, including cultural presentations, workshops, scholarly lectures, stomp dance demonstrations, fashion shows and more.
