About this grant

This grant will provide funds to increase accessibility and capacity of the New McCree Theatre facility. In March 2020, the organization purchased the former Charity United Methodist Church on Clio Road as a permanent home. The 23,000 square-foot facility is two stories with a balcony area for seating and equipment. This grant will fund the installation of glass railings in the balcony in order to offer seating for shows in this area of the theater. Funds will also be used to install a chairlift between the main floor and the lower level increasing accessibility for programming and community events.
