100th Years of Theater!

Description

Celebrate 100 Years with Us!

Free Event

 

Join us in celebrating the 100th year of The Indiana Theater.  Opening in 1924 as a vaudeville theater, the space was soon converted to a movie theater for the new talkies.  Serving as a community theater, a church, a film theater, and other spaces over the years, the theater is now serving the community as a nonprofit center for the arts.  Read more about our history here.
