The Liberty was constructed in 1927 as the Granada Theatre – a popular art deco icon in the heart of town. But over the succeeding 80-plus years, there were ups and downs in the economy, the name change to Liberty, and a fire that ravaged the building’s interior.

Wali Collins on That One Thing

Wali Collins

June 09, 2016

What is that one thing that you can do for hours? The thing you feel you were born to do. What is that particular something that when you are doing it, it brings you peace and calmness?
