The Hobbit and Lincoln are just a couple of the big pictures
that have shown at Selma's Walton Theatre in recent weeks.
The Walton is where our parents and grandparents went to see westerns
on Saturdays before it fell into disrepair. The building was renovated
in the 1980s and became home to the Larry D. Striplin Performing Arts Centre.

It's great that it has lasted so long!
I adore historic buildings especially theater. We have one that we attend the plays at every year.

they did a great job with the renovations! i love the old theaters. i've shown the one we have here.
Nice to see a small theatre like this still around.
A beautiful building. Historic buildings are keepers.
You are so fortunate to have that beautiful building - and a place to see movies. That is one thing Fairhope is missing. A movie theater. The old one burned down years ago.
Fairhope, Selma was without a theater for several years until the city leased this building. It has been in business about a year.
How wonderful that it was restored and used as a community theater.
Interesting building!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
It's such a beautiful old building !
Great shot! Wow and such history ~ glad to see it still going ~

So i assume it is more than a movie theatre? They have plays and other performances there as well? It's a beautiful looking building from the outside.
Hamilton, it's still a performing arts center but primarily used as a movie theater.
very nice and colorful place!
Nice to see it being used.
Boy, that is an old-timer! I like seeing movies in old theaters like this one, but unfortunately, many are in sad condition. I hope Selma is lucky enough to have one that is fun to enjoy.
It is a beautiful building, I am glad to hear it was restored. Great post, thanks for sharing your world. Have a happy day!
