Secrest Auditorium to Undergo Massive Renovation with Help from State Grant

A beloved Ohio music hall is getting a makeover.

The Zanesville Times Recorder reports the city received a $6.5 million grant from the Ohio Department of Development, the Ohio Department of Development's Office of Appalachia, and Gov.

According to a press release, the renovation will include a new entrance, a new lobby area, escalators, elevators, larger restrooms, and more.
