In June 2026, more than 300 community members gathered for an extraordinary concert to raise funds for the Strand’s new sound system. With a generous leading gift from Beatles tribute sensation The Walrus, event revenue, and community support, we will begin Phase 1 of the sound system upgrade on Sunday, November 29. In short, this project will separate the analog cinema sound system and pair it with the 35mm projectors and install a new digital system to match the technological capacity of our 2024 digital projector. This project is an exciting step forward as we work to retain the historic integrity of our 1923 theater and bring our patrons the best cinema experience available. The cinema sound upgrade is made possible by the generous support of our community:
