The good news: Capitol Hill’s own Three Dollar Bill Cinema has been selected as one of ten winners of the Mayor’s Arts Awards for 2012 and will be honored during a ceremony Friday to kick-off the visual arts portion of this year’s Bumbershoot. The bad news: the prize is non-monetary. Hopefully you bought a lot of popcorn at this summer’s movies in the park. Congratulations to Three Dollar.

Three Dollar Bill Cinema
Since 1996, Three Dollar Bill Cinema has been the premiere arts organization representing LGBT film and media in the Northwest. The organization provides access to films by, for and about LGBT people and their families, and is a forum for LGBT filmmakers to share and discuss their work. Three Dollar Bill’s chief program is the Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival. Celebrating its 17th year, the 11-day festival has become the largest of its kind in the Pacific Northwest and has garnered national recognition for showcasing extraordinary and award-winning work. Three Dollar Bill Cinema also hosts many film events for the community, including the free, summer film series in Cal Anderson Park, celebrating diversity in a family-friendly environment.
