History
The official website of the Liberty Theatre Foundation states that the Liberty Theatre first opened its doors in 1910 as a venue for live performances, later became a movie house, and screened films until its closure in 1959. It describes the theater as a central icon in downtown La Grande. In 2009, a group of La Grande citizens came together to form a nonprofit organization with the goal of restoring the Liberty, and the Liberty Theatre Foundation became an independent 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in 2012. Its mission is to restore the theater as a performing arts center and cinema, providing cultural and educational experiences to La Grande and surrounding communities throughout northeast Oregon. The site reports that framing, roofing, HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical work, and fire suppression have been completed, and that the theater is entering its final phase of restoration, the finish work, with plans for interior and exterior finishing and installation of a cinema system and sound and light systems.
