IFC Films on Tuesday announced their promotion of longtime company executive Harris Dew to the role of Senior Vice President and General Manager of IFC Center.
Dew, who most recently served as IFC Center’s Vice President of Programs and Promotions, will now oversee all operations and programming for the NYC arthouse theater, reporting to IFC Films’ Interim President, Scott Shooman.
He takes over his role from John Vanco, another longtime veteran of IFC Center who departed in April to head up film programming for Netflix-owned cinemas including NYC’s Paris Theatre, and the Egyptian and Bay Theatre in Los Angeles. “Harris has played a key role establishing IFC Center as a beloved cultural institution for the independent and documentary film communities, particularly in bringing to life our hugely successful DOC NYC festival and ensuring a diverse and inclusive line-up of films and events,” said Shooman in a statement. “With his great programming sensibilities and strong industry relationships, we look forward to Harris leading IFC Center into its next chapter.” “I’m incredibly excited to take over the reins of IFC Center and build on our proud 18-year history of bringing New Yorkers great films,” added Dew. “Exhibiting films in a theater is still the best way to make people fall in love with the movies, and I’m honored and thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to showcase important artists and provide film lovers with a vibrant moviegoing experience.” Joining IFC Center as Director of Programs and Promotions in 2005, Dew has in his most recent role, programmed first-run engagements, repertory film series and special events for the Greenwich Village-based theater.
