I am having an exhibit to honor this ‘grand’ old lady of the art deco era June 30-August 6 in Westfield NY. Collecting and finding artifacts continues to be a ‘Labor of Love’. A reception will be held June 30 from 6-8 with light refreshments at the Lake Shore Center for the Arts.
What is the current status of this theatre in KY? Will it return as a theatre or has it been demolished? Need clarification. Thank you to whomever can provide current info. If it closed in 1979, what has occurred in that space since then.
Winnetka is the childhood home of Hollywood actor, Rock Hudson. While there Rock was in theatre productions during his high school years. I am currently reading All That Heaven Allows A Biography of Rock Hudson by Mark Griffin.

This theatre has recently undergone a restoration that includes expanding the back of the house though I don’t think it included its original organ or any organ. Can anyone tell us more?
This theatre for many years was a teen center though it is now being returned to the town as the theatre it once was. Just this past weekend local theatre did a stage production of Steel Magnolia.
Sad
Is the space still an antique and collectible storefront? It should return to being a theatre,imho.
So the Strand as been triplexed? There goes plans to see this theatre.
Need to see interior photos of this beautiful art deco cinema treasure! A shame it is now gone to the ages as a theatre is a town’s anchor!

Think this charming cinema is now a pizza parlor. Shame.
What a Cinema Treasure charmer!

The Grand was my hometown theatre and I miss it. Wish I could post the exhibit poster for Remembering the Grand.
