To the surprise of many at Monday night’s Easton Town Council meeting, the Avalon Foundation’s board of directors agreed to use their lease option to buy the theatre located on Dover Street from the Town of Easton for $406,000.
After months of negotiations, and spirited discussions about the future of the performance venue, including the transfer from the town to the Avalon for one dollar, Avalon President Sue Bredekamp announced that the nonprofit would exercise its right to purchase the building outright with donations made over the last week from its major donors.
The Spy captured the history making moment.
