About the East Lansing Film Society Film Series

The East Lansing Film Society Film Series was created in the fall of 1998 when the closing of the only art house movie theater in Greater Lansing, The Odeon, closed. The ELFS Film Series gives you the chance to see intelligent, creative independent films that are offered in major cities but do not have a venue in this area. The films are shown on the campus of Michigan State University in Wells Hall in room 108B that has 35mm projection and seating capacity of 600.

In 1999, MSU created The Campus Center Cinema that offers second run films (mainstream movies that have left the theaters) in three adjacent rooms in Wells Hall. We share a ticket booth and a concession stand with delicious popcorn and regular movie theater fare. Free parking is available in many nearby parking lots. Ticket prices are almost half of what you would pay in New York or San Francisco! The East Lansing Film Series is brought to you by the East Lansing Film Festival a non-profit organization that holds a world-class film festival each March for four days in Wells Hall. Come enjoy films that stimulate, enthrall, amuse and enlighten!
