The Grand Theater in Knoxville has released a statement regarding water damage they sustained on Tuesday.
Statement Below
For several years we have been working towards replacing the roof of The Grand Theater. During roof repairs the unexpected rain took crews by surprise and allowed water to enter into the building. At this time the extent of damage is to be determined. We appreciate the ongoing support from the community members. Our insurance teams are working diligently to insure we can return successfully and in a timely manner. We currently do not need clean up help but have more than appreciated the offers coming in! Knoxville never seems to let us down when it comes to helping out! If you feel inclined to help financially, we will be accepting donations via the paypal link below or checks via mail made out to The Grand Theater Foundation. We hope to provide you with more information and a positive update as we navigate this process with our insurance company.
Thanks for the continued support,
Executive Director- Nicholas Crouse
