THE CONSTELLATION CENTER
Sometime in 2010, at a site in East Cambridge/Kendall Square, , about a block from the Kendall Square "T": will open the four auditorium state of the art Constellation Center, a multi-functional arts center, with special attention to music nd film. This is the brainchild of former venture capitalist Glenn KnicKrehm, a man whosew passion for both art forms is matched by his overwhelming desire for technical excellence in presentation
The auditoriums, which will range in size from just under l25 to about 750, will fill a need for medium sized venues for performing arts groups. At the same time it will be a gathering place for lovers of independent film and classic film. It will also provide an exccelent venue for smaller arts organizations who do not have a regular home. Glenn wants the facility to be highly interactive, and I can see a use for screenings of works in prograss as well as completed films. He also has amassed an incredible number of vntage 35mm prints of classic films al in mint condition.
Glenn started the project almost l0 years ago. He has pursued the evolution of the concept with an almost childloke sense of curiosity. His research and contacts, both locally and natinaly, are astounding. His contribuion to Boston area arts will be profound. I will keep you posted on further developments.
