St Kilda’s Australian National Memorial Theatre on the corner of Barkly and Carlisle Streets is having $600,000 work done as part of a conservation plan to keep it open as a performing arts venue.

Some of the money for the 1921 Beaux Arts theatre’s maintenance has been contributed by the state government.

Still, the theatre needs over $750,000, so the CEO, Robert Tayler has called for private donations to fill the funding gap.

Donaions are tax deductable.  For more information, visit the National Theatre website.
