E Street Cinema & AFI Silver
Fed up with similar story lines being repeated over and over again at mainstream movie theaters? Feel like trying something new? Consider visiting Washington, DC’s E Street Cinema or Silver Spring, MD’s AFI Silver Theater.
In the heart of downtown Washington, DC, the E Street Cinema specializes in independent and foreign language films, documentary features, and classic revivals. Just hop off at Metro Center on the subway line and walk to the entrance on E Street between 10th and 11th Street NW. With everything from movie-length comedic French cartoons to the great dramas of our day, you’ll never leave E Street bored.

Another option is the AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center in Silver Spring (right outside of DC). At this metro accessible location, you can experience cinema’s finest talents in not only the United States, but also the world. All forms of the moving image are explored, and visitors often have the opportunity to learn about various aspects of film through the many lectures, festivals, and exhibits on display. As home to one of the nation’s most beautiful theaters, watching a movie at the AFI is truly a memorable experience that will not only entertain, but also inform.
