Cultural Impact

Artistic Culture

The Liberty Theatre at its core is a positive cultural and social impact. As one of the first black theatres in the country, its value on the community around it was and is immeasurable. It was a cultural center for many years that held regular events, shows, showings, performances, and competitions. It gave people a place to learn, to gather, and to thrive, and it is beginning to bring back this positive influence once again.

The Liberty Theatre would hold events where people could learn different dances that were popular or watch famous performers sing and dance. There were regular movie showings and events for children where their parents could drop them off. The theatre held competitions for dancing, singing, and performing with prizes for the community as well.
