Depot is an independent community cinema and cafe-restaurant with education facilities, created and operated by the charity Lewes Community Screen.
It takes its name from its site, which was originally a GPO depot and, more recently, a Harvey’s Brewery depot. The project was the brainchild of Carmen Slijpen and Robert Senior, two Lewes residents who share a passion for cinema.
Lewes Community Screen aspires to create a venue that serves as a focal point for the local community, not only in the area of film but through a wider range of art forms.
