About:
The Capri is owned and operated by PCYC, a strong, 69-years-young, community-based nonprofit with a rich history of delivering exceptional education, arts, and youth programming to children, families, the North Minneapolis community, and beyond. Built in 1927, The Capri Theater is the only one of 13 movie houses in North Minneapolis that remains standing today. It provides the Northside and metro-wide community with countless opportunities to experience and produce art, to create and implement ideas, and to Be Together.
