It was closed in 2019 but remained open as a house for live performances and special events. Movies returned in October 2023 as the Maven Cinemas, screening classic movies and even played classic intermission films which is very unique to see. Unfortunately, this didn’t last long, and a small electrical fire at the common space caused the closure in early June 2024. It was announced on July 12, 2024 that the closure would be permanent.
The Towne is closed and currently for sale. Nice venue although the auditorium was split down the center for two screens
This reopened as Towne on February 29th, 1980. Ad in photo section.
Here is a 1983 photo:

This is truly a family operation and is a refreshing change from the corporate mega-plex world.Not a movie “palace”,but definitely an old time experience.The fact that it is so family friendly and inexpensive is great for those big Mormon families.The Deseret News had a great article a few months ago on this operation.I believe the article can be located on the utahtheaters.info site
