Mos’ Art Theatre is no more.
A goodbye message on the Lake Park movie theater’s Facebook page was posted June 21, and a similar message on the theater’s website reads:
The Mos’Art Theatre is now closed. We greatly appreciate the years and loyalty from our amazing customers. I hope when you look back at your theatre experiences it brings you a smile. Best of luck to all of you in all that you do.
Thank you for the memories.
In 2009, the single-screen movie house began showing new indie releases and reissues of classics, and playing host to live comedy shows and concerts.
The 150-seat screening room was furnished with love seats and sofas, making it one of the quirkiest places to see a movie in Palm Beach County.
Over the years at Mos’ Art, I saw Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s “World on a Wire,” Nicolas Roeg’s “The Man Who Fell to Earth,” the documentary “Jodorowsky’s Dune” and many more hard-to-find movies with limited appeal.
I sure will miss the Mos’ Art, but I do smile when I think of the cinematic experiences I enjoyed there.
