Awesome historic movie theater. Much like the Saenger theaters, very ornate. It has become a Christmas tradition to come watch It’s A Wonderful Life in the old place. Very fun, plus a bar that serves drinks and food.
Birmingham Landmarks, Inc., a 501c3 organization, operates in the black year in and year out. However, there are never enough revenues left over to do the major maintenance repairs that come up frequently such as a new $660,000 air conditioning system, $450,000 for an expanded women’s restroom and $200,000 to return the 3rd Avenue North iconic vertical Alabama sign. Therefore, we ask your help in providing funds for the ongoing maintenance and care of these two beloved theatres. Make a gift of $10,000 or more and be permanently recognized as a member of the Birmingham Landmarks Legacy Society inside the lobby of the historic Alabama theatre!
