Baltimore's Senator Theater, the last of the area's grand old movie theaters, may be facing its final curtain. The theater has 10 days to raise the $93,000 it owes its lender or the majestic, nearly 70 year old building will be sold at foreclosure auction.I'm not here to ask you for a donation but if you do feel so inclined every little bit helps. A groundswell of grassroots fund-raising efforts has been under way for a few days, helped along by articles in the local media (you can read the articles at the site link below) and the theater promises a fundraising "progress bar" to let people know how close they are to achieving their goal.
More than just a theater, the Senator is also a key component in the recent revival of the city's Belvedere Square area and brings substantial foot traffic to the restaurants and small businesses that have helped turn the area around. A donation to help the Senator is a donation to help continue the revitalization of Baltimore itself.
