This month we are pleased to welcome a new Director of Marketing and Communications to our Cinema Arts Centre family. Nate Close is a Town of Huntington native whose background working in Huntington has helped foster his love and connection to our community.
Nate is a graduate from Bernard M. Baruch College in Manhattan, having specialized in Digital and Cultural Communications. Nate has done extensive research on how media, film, and digital spaces impact our identities and the communities we take part in. Some of his passions include volunteer work, social justice, and working to help provide access to education and a voice to marginalize groups. As part of our Cinema Arts Centre community Nate hopes to foster diversity, inclusivity, and community involvement while bringing more visibility to the wonderful events and screenings we offer.
Like the rest of our Cinema Arts community, Nate is a film lover. He has taken a particular interest in female filmmakers and their impact on film history. Some of his favorites include
Ida Lupino
,
Agnes Varda
, and
Jane Campion
.
We are happy to have Nate working hard to support our organization and helping us build upon our already great community.
