Distinguished and Famous people from North Hobart

📚 John Kelly

John Kelly bought North Hobart’s State Cinema in 2002 and helped turn the ageing picture house into a thriving cinema complex. In an interview about its history, he recalled attending school excursions and teenage dates there before becoming its owner. Restoration and expansion gave the familiar venue a new chapter, while its role in the neighbourhood extended beyond individual film screenings.
