Theaters have always captured our imaginations with their unique architecture, lighting, and lobbies. Darrell Jabin, Oregon’s Traveling Historian, toured the state, photographing theaters, researching movie palaces and drive-ins, and interviewing historians, theater owners, and directors of community theaters, to create this presentation. Join Darrell Jabin for an entertaining discussion and share your memories about a unique part of Oregon history.
