The Hollywood Theater is an iconic Art Deco landmark in Northeast Minneapolis. When it opened in 1936, the theater was described as “the incomparable showcase of the Northwest’’. After years of decline, the theater closed in 1987 and was purchased by the city of Minneapolis. Twenty-five years of inaction and neglect followed until 2014 when the National Park Service recognized the building’s historical significance and listed it on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2015 the theater was sold to Northeast-resident and entrepreneur Andrew Volna, who saved the building and restored its original Art Deco splendor. Today it is ready to host your event.

Well, “used to be” in the sense that it was my profession for many years. After dreaming of being a photographer, and the hard work it took to realize that dream, I found that pursuing a passion as a profession came at a significant cost -- the passion. So I moved on. Though, never really putting my camera down in hopes of preserving that passion. While my path took me away from photography and towards some success in another industry, the years have found me missing the connections and the stories that I took part in as a photographer.
