The historic Strand Theatre lights up the downtown Marietta square with live theatre, films, concerts, comedy, private events, and more. Join us for a conversation with Andy Gaines, the General Manager of this historic venue.

You’ll come away with an even higher level of enthusiasm and be seriously impressed with all that’s going on! Andy & I, among other things, discussed:

• The history of The Strand
• Is it an arts venue? An economic driver? Both?
• The power of collaboration with businesses AND nonprofits
• Don’t just think about the Strand. Think “Marietta Arts District”
• The Strand’s creative response to the pandemic

The best news is The Strand has a full slate of events lined up starting THE DAY  the world reopens!

Thank you, Andy Gaines, for your service to our community!

…and thank you to the organizations helping us with the beta test of the Willful Impact App!
