Athenium Theatre, Historic theatre in Junee, Australia
The Athenium Theatre spans across The Broadway street with a classical architectural design created by the firm Kaberry and Chard in 1929.
Greek immigrant George Laurantus managed this cinema establishment during the early twentieth century, marking a period of cultural entrepreneurship in New South Wales.
The theatre transformed from a cinema venue to a community center in 1977 when the Junee and District Development Association acquired the building.
The New South Wales State Heritage Register protects this structure through specific regulations that ensure its preservation for future generations.
Local residents prevented the demolition of this theatre in 2003 through collective action, leading to its renovation and continued use as a community hall.
