Welcome
The Jacksonville Silent Film Museum at Norman Studios is an Old Arlington, Inc. project to document the silent film history in Jacksonville, Florida, and the Southeast. The only known remaining silent film studio complex* left standing is the Norman Studios on Arlington Road, in Arlington, Jacksonville. There could be no better home for this new institution. We are in the process of refurbishing the Norman Studios back to its grander days to be ready in 2009/2010 for a unique showing of the only remaining film that was shot here. The "Flying Ace" is currently in the Library of Congress Archives, awaiting our showtime.
We truly are lucky that we have this studio complex, but we do not have it all. One building is currently owned by the Circle of Faith Ministries but we can purchase the property by raising the money. We would like to have your support in this project. Read our content, take a look at some images, and decide to get involved.
