Before becoming the Paramount, this house was in operation by 1914 as Hub’s Theatre, which is how it was listed in the 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory.

This article from the February 1, 2022 issue of the Omak-Okanogan County Chronicle tells of a mural installed in the theater for owner Hub Carlton in 1915. The mural was long ago plastered over, and its existence only rediscovered recently. The article has a recent photo of the mural and a vintage photo of the Paramount’s auditorium.

The address of the Paramount is 118 N. Second Avenue.
