About the Elks Theatre
The opera house known as Prescott's Elks Theater and Performing Arts Center dates from the turn of the 20th century, is classically designed, and has seating for more than 500. It stands at East Gurley Street in Prescott, Arizona, in an Early Commercial style building of three stories, approximately 29 m (95 ft) wide and 38 m (125 ft) deep. It was one of numerous opera houses built by Elks lodges across the United States. The building was completed in 1905, and the National Register of Historic Places lists it under the name Elks Building and Theater.
In its early years the theater hosted minstrel shows, balls, plays and other performances. Movies came with the silent era around 1915, sound was added in 1929, and films kept being shown until the 1980s. After several changes of private ownership, the Arizona Community Foundation took over the opera house in the early 1980s, and the City of Prescott bought it in 2001. Work costing $1.75 million on the theater finished in 2010, and in 2012 the city sold the property to a nonprofit group, ETPAC (Elks Theater and Performing Arts Center).
The nonprofit group then set about renovating the three-story Elks Lodge #330, and all construction was completed in December 2016. Original barrel ceilings with tin stamp remain in other parts of the building, and the renovation uncovered a hidden staircase. A stained glass clock placed by the Brotherhood of Elks points to 11 o'clock, the hour of an Elks toast to absent members. The original copper elk, Bill, sits on the roof.
