The Grand Theater was opened around 1925, and continued until 1979.
In recent years it was used for storage space for a thrift shop operated by a religious organization.
In December 2010 the Grand Theater was purchased by the Grand Theater Restoration Project who are working on a full restoration of the building, to become a performing arts center.

This May 22, 2024 article is the most recent report I’ve found on the progress of the Grand Theatre’s renovation. The lobby has been restored, and the Wurlitzer organ was lately recommissioned, but restoration or replacement of water-damaged plaster in the Auditorium is still underway. A couple of photos show much of the auditorium still in very rough condition. No target date for completion of the project is given, but I suspect it will be quite some time.
