Tonight you can return to the local Walton Theatre as they prepare to open their doors after a three-week shutdown.

The Walton Theatre has provided entertainment to Selma and Dallas County and is an attraction that keeps moviegoers local, which keeps money local.

“I am super happy that we’re back up and running,” Gospel Tabernacle Church Pastor John Grayson said. “It’s been a long, tedious process and we’re looking forward to having our customers come back.”

Grayson and Gospel Tabernacle, alongside the local non-profit group All Things Are Possible (ATAP), run the local theatre for the City of Selma. Each month, the groups pay the city to lease the space and pay an additional entertainment tax.

We are thankful for Grayson and the Gospel Tabernacle Church that works hard to keep this local attraction going.

The theatre should be supported by all who live here.
