Grandin Seat Campaign
WE ARE NOW AT 98% OF THE WAY THERE TO OUR SEAT CAMPAIGN!!
Help us reach our goal!
The Grandin Theatre Foundation is launching the public phase of our Seat Replacement Campaign to raise funds to replace all 509 seats in the historic Grandin Theatre. During the SAVE THE GRANDIN campaign and restoration in 2001, the seats used were refurbished and included parts and pieces from old seats, along with new cushions and fabric. Some of parts and pieces are now 50 to 60 years old. Many of our seats are now broken and uncomfortable after years of high usage and heavy traffic.
Currently, the Grandin Theatre Foundation has accomplished the goals of replacing the seats in the Screening Room (36) and acquiring pledges for the Upper Left and Upper Right theatres (148). As the campaign moves to its public phase, the Grandin Theatre looks to the community to help meet the goal of replacing all the seats in The Main Theatre, by far the largest task at 319 seats. Patrons are welcome to donate to the campaign or to buy one, a pair, a half row (5), or a full row (10) of new seats to support the campaign and help Roanoke’s oldest landmark achieve this important capital goal in 2019. Individual donors, civic groups, and business owners are all encouraged to inquire and support.
