Check out the Marquee At Madison Theater - Lit Up at Night

MADISON, CT – Patch was the first news organization that showed you what the Madison Art Cinemas new, state of LED electronic marquee looked like in a story it published last week.

But we feel like we only told half the story - since the photo showed the new marquee during the daytime.

To finish the job, we want to show you what the new electronic marque looks like lighted up at night - illuminating much of the downtown Madison area around it.

So take a look at the photo that accompanies this story - which showed the marquee fully lit up at night this past weekend.

The new marquee has replaced the old movie theater marquee. The new one is a new, state of the art LED electronic marquee.

Evan Walsh, of Cima Network, Inc., who represented Cinema owner Arnold Gorlick at the Planning and Zoning meeting where it was approved a few months ago, described the new sign as an "upgrade" from the existing marquee which currently "requires a ladder and an individual to physically change the letters on the sign."
The new marquee, Walsh said, "Operates with computer software, enabling the user to change the message in-house rather than going outdoors and physically changing it; has a three-primary color pixel configuration of red, blue, and green, thus enabling the sign to show color renderings and not strictly black and white composition."
Additionally, the new sign has the ability to be changed every 15 seconds – and, Walsh told the PZC, could be used to "promote town events, give the time and temperature, or display emergency alert information to residents.”
