qathet Film Society

The Patricia Theatre is owned by the qathet film society, a charitable non-profit, and producers of the qathet international film festival.

In 2002, the first Powell River Film Festival was held in the high school gym as the “Reel Love Film Festival.” In 2004 Friends of Film Society of Powell River was incorporated under the BC Society Act, and in 2005 the organization was registered with the Charities Directorate of Revenue Canada. In 2012, the society moved its screenings to the Patricia Theatre, where it continues its annual Film Festival. The Friends of the Historic Patricia Theatre Society has been working since 2004 to help preserve and restore the Patricia Theatre (In operation since 1913 – the longest running movie theatre in Canada) as a vital community cultural amenity.
