We need your support!

Restoring silent cinema technology is complex, time-intensive, and increasingly rare work. Many of the machines SCAAT cares for, such as fotoplayers and mechanical sound systems, were never meant to survive a century without expert intervention.

Your Contribution Helps Fund:

• Restoration of historic cinema equipment
• Maintenance of specialized parts, materials, and tools that are no longer commercially available
• Conservation of mechanical musical systems
• Live silent film performances using authentic restored equipment
• Education demos, lectures, and outreach

Every donation helps ensure that silent cinema remains a living art form and not a forgotten one. By donating, you become a partner in safeguarding a vital chapter of film history, and we can’t thank you enough for your support!
