Earlier this year, in January, the Sun Valley Museum of Art (SVMoA) and The Liberty Theatre Company (TLTC) reached a final agreement gifting The Liberty Theater building to the Hailey nonprofit. In the Aug. 24 Wood River Weekly article ‘The Gift Of Theatre,’ we reported the gift was given just last month.
We regret the error and wish TLTC good luck in its efforts to raise funds for keeping the landmark Hailey building. Currently, the group lacks sufficient resources to cover the $1.7 million of total costs, so a fundraising campaign is underway. Fueling the high price is significant internal renovation needed to satisfy post-pandemic industry standards, as well as structural renovation due to common aging. And like any good play, fueling the drama is a ticking clock—specifically, TLTC must raise the $1.7 million by Dec. 31 of this year.
