DECATUR, Ala.–The Princess Theatre Center for the Performing Arts here has received a $250,000 donation from Redstone FCU.
The funds are to be used for renovations to the theater’s loft space, theater and education programming, and to add a digital display board to the marquee.
The contribution was made by Redstone FCU President/CEO Joseph Newberry to theater Executive Director Anne Scarbrough.
According to Scarbrough, the theater plans to spend about $90,000 on the 5,100-square-foot loft space and a new elevator to the loft. Another $44,000 will add a digital display board to the marquee.
Scarbrough said a digital message board and display cases are needed so the theater can better promote its events and promotional partners.
The remainder of the donation will be used for educational funding and to pay for the 2018 entertainment season in the loft, according to the theater.
