Restoration of Augusta's 1935 Art Deco Movie Palace
The Restoration project is complete and everyone is invited to stop by the Augusta Theatre and see the changes! The Augusta Theatre was fortunate to receive a $148,000 matching grant thru the Parks Service, with the support of Congressman Todd Tiahrt.
The "Save our State Street" (SOS) project brought in $23,887.
We thank everyone involved and everyone who has donated to the SOS project and to the Theatre!
