Welcome! Welcome to our website and, if you are new to the area, welcome to New Canaan. The New Canaan Men’s Club was founded in 1977 by a group of men who met regularly at the YMCA to play racquetball. While the Club has grown since then, providing friendship and fellowship to members remains a core mission of our Club. We meet on Friday mornings in Morrill Hall at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, but we are nonreligious, nonpartisan, as well as a non-profit community organization (501(c)(3). Each Friday meeting has a speaker covering interesting and often a timely topic.
Next Meeting – Friday, February 28, 2025Luke Parker BowlesCinema Lab, The Playhouse, and the Movie IndustryLuke Parker Bowles is the CEO of Cinema Lab, a U.S movie theatre development and management company.
Luke believes the theatrical experience is important, purely because it is the best way to share movies and creates a sense of community and empathy. He also thinks movie theatres should be reimaged as the social and entertainment soul of a town.
Luke will discuss the challenges of building the Playhouse, the success to date and plans for the future. He will also talk about what’s going on in the movie industry today.
