The historic GEM Theatre is celebrating Giving Tuesday by encouraging the community to help sustain the beloved Calhoun landmark and its year-round arts programming. As a nonprofit organization, the GEM relies on community support to preserve the theatre’s iconic character while continuing to offer affordable entertainment and cultural experiences for all ages.
From live concerts, comedy shows, and community events to its popular free movie series, the GEM Theatre remains a cornerstone for arts and entertainment in Calhoun-Gordon County. Theatre leaders say this mission is possible only through the generosity of donors, volunteers, and local partners.
