This Regal Historic Theatre In Washington Is Now Offering Virtual Screenings
The Liberty Theatre in Camas is nearly a century old, and it has received statewide attention for its vintage aesthetic and architectural design. And while the theatre is currently closed to help flatten the curve, it hasn’t stopped them from showing movies to cinema-loving Washingtonians. Read on for ways to support this charming theatre and independent films from the comfort of your home.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures!

It was constructed with funding from local businessman Charles Farrell and designed by Portland architect P. M. Hall-Lewis.
The theatre has been through a lot -- a fire destroyed the ticket booth, lobby, and concession area in 1994. In 2009, it had to close for financial reasons.
The new management group wanted to create an affordable theater experience and make films more accessible.
In the meantime, they've created a fantastic virtual screening experience.
Click the link, purchase the virtual ticket (usually $12, but sometimes less), and you'll have access to the movie for three days.
And while anyone can view these films from anywhere, if you happen to live near Camas, you can stop by Liberty on Fridays and Saturdays and purchase some theater snacks to-go.
