Onancock International Films, founded by Steve Lotharius, owner of The North Street Market, and Kitty Croke, began in October 2005. Overwhelming response from the audience prompted the establishment of a committee of four Onancock residents including Lotharius and Croke, who are dedicating themselves to keeping it going. The committee includes Jean Hungiville and Teri Betz. Jean’s company Minuteman Press, produces the posters, brochures and tickets. The first five series have resulted in a growing following of International films. The largest audience to date was 250 movie lovers!

 

“The Season Pass holders continue to be the life blood of the international film program,” said Steve Lotharius of North Street Market. “It’s their continued support that makes this program possible. However, we’re surprised and delighted with the extraordinary number of ticket sales at the door.”

 

“We couldn’t be happier with the response from the community,” says Kitty Croke, co-originator of the concept. “People are coming from all over the Shore and there are even some who are visiting us from across the Bay and from Maryland, making a weekend of it! Attendance has remained strong in all seasons.”
