This is the floor plan and exterior rendering for the renovated Elba Theatre.  We were blessed to be able to work with one of the leading architecture firms in the country, Lord Aeck Sargant.  We were paired with them by a website that matches non-profits and architects who donate a portion of their time and talents to worthy causes.  After meeting with us on several occasions and holding a Visioning Workshop for interested community members, this is the design that was decided on.  A $30,000 grant from the Alabama State Council on the Arts allowed us to contract them for the full set of blueprints, which you can view with the following link:   https://1drv.ms/b/s!AgDHa8YgPZihv1Fv_KdVdshm200P

As you can see, this is a massive project that is currently in the fundraising stage.  The full project will include official architectural drawings, a sustainability plan, extensive plumbing and electrical work, roof replacement, new HVAC, restrooms, flooring, wall treatments, lighting, stage renovation, concession stand, box office, marquee fabrication and installation, professional audio/video equipment and more.  Work will be completed in phases as funds are acquired.  We are raising funds by applying for grants from a variety of funding sources, selling components (seats, "stars", etc.) and individual donations.  If you have any resources or skills that will help us reach our goal, please reach out to Laurie Chapman at 334-494-4629 or Justin Maddox at 334-494-2952.
