Local attorney and Jena Town Legal Counsel Evans Dorroh welcomed the dozens of attendees including State Senator Glen Womack (center left) to The Strand Theater Premiere Opening and fundraiser event. The town-owned historic theater, which was established in 1937, was recently restored and will be used for performances, events and programs as well as rented out as an event space for weddings, receptions, rehearsals, family reunions, homecoming events and more. At the premiere opening event, refreshments were served and Butch King of Ferriday provided music. Strand T-shirts and hoodies were sold and a silent auction was held with proceeds going to purchase curtains for the stage. The theater is located at 3228 North First Street.
