The Holland Theatre is the only known atmospheric theatre based on a Dutch Village. It was built as a movie theater by the Schine Brothers from New York in 1931. Back in December of 1999, Logan County Landmark Preservation Inc. took ownership of the theatre, since then more than 148,000 hours of volunteer labor has been donated by local citizens. The first major improvement to the theatre was a new roof in 2000. Each year steady progress was made on sound, lighting, etc. Then in 2018, a $430,000 grant from the Jeffris Family Foundation and generosity from donors, plus an allocation of Ohio Historic Tax Credits allowed the project to finally wrap up.
The Holland’s Grand Re-Opening was graced with the presence of iconic Judy Collins on October 18th, 2019.
