I uploaded the grand opening ad that raysson found here.
From 1992 to 2003 it was run by Gilmore Entertainment. Currently still employed by them. I found old pictures of outside and lobby will download soon

Chuck1231: This information about this theatre will be updated. I have found the original ad for the Quaker Village’s grand opening in the December 22,1972 edition of the Greensboro News and Record. I will have this reposted. The Quaker Village was Greensboro’s second twin cinema after the opening the Janus in 1968.
After Carmike closed this theatre it was taken over by the owners of the Kernersville Countryside Cinema, who ran the Quaker Cinemas for about three years before closing it for good. Also, Carmike acquired the Quaker and Golden Gate Cinemas in its 1986 takeover of Stewart & Everett, not using their own name in Greensboro ads until the Golden Gate was shut down.
