Jeslyn recently renovated the former movie theater. The marquee has been removed. It’s still open, however.
Here are two 1985 photos of the Camelot:

There is a 1930’s Palace theater cloth movie banner that lists the Spring movies for sale on EBay. It was posted earlier in the week.
The Jeslyn Performing Arts Center/Camelot can be seen in this recent photo.
This is a November 2007 story about this theater.
The Camelot is no longer a movie theater. It is now Jeslyn Performing Art Center. www.jeslyn.org It is a wonderful addition to our downtown. The new owners are slowing refurbishing it. If anyone has pictures of the original Palace Theater they would love to see them.
Here is another photo of the Camelot Theater.
GHTC closed the Camelot Theatre Jan. 5, 2006
From a story about the Keith Albee Theater closing Jan. 22, 2006. I dont know the future of this building but I do know that all movie equipment was removed from it.
Here is a link to a B&W photo of the Camelot Theatre.
