Thank you, St. Landry Parish Tourism!
The Liberty Theatre, beloved gem of downtown Eunice, has been closed since 2020. The Association for the Liberty Theatre of Eunice has several announcements on their ongoing efforts to renovate this cultural landmark:
• On the exterior of the building there has been masonry replacement and repair, a resealed roof to prevent further leaks, refreshed south windows and doors with sealing and repainting, as well as the replacement of scuppers and downspouts.
• In the interior, the fire pump room has been restored and updated with new equipment.
• ADA-compliant entrance and restrooms are in the works.
• OTJ Architects have conducted a feasibility study and are working with the Association for renovation planning.
• Liberty Theater is now designated as the Center for Louisiana Culture and Folklife.
