The Grand, Art Deco theater in Ellsworth, United States

The Grand features a single-story brick construction with five storefronts and a rear two-story auditorium designed by Boston architects Krokyn & Brown.

Following a devastating fire in 1933 that destroyed much of Ellsworth's business district, The Grand was constructed in 1938 as part of the recovery effort.

The theater serves as a performing arts center, presenting live performances, concerts, and broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera and National Theatre in London.

The renovated auditorium accommodates 480 seats, with a lobby that contains concession stands, restroom facilities, and display cases for playbills.

The exterior showcases a stepped steel-and-glass tower constructed from black and red Vitrolite glass, complemented by a marquee with stylized lettering.
