CinemaSalem Exceeds Fundraising Goal
Salem residents have opened up their wallets and saved CinemaSalem.
It's official, CinemaSalem will be able to replace their projectors.
As of early this morning, an online fundraising effort to save CinemaSalem that kicked off earlier this month had raised $61,665.
Theater Owner Paul Van Ness has enlisted the help of Kickstarter, an online fundraising platform, in the hopes of raising the $60,000 needed to buy the digital projectors he needs to stay in business.

Without the projectors, Van Ness said the theater wouldn't have been able to show the latest Hollywood films and will force him to close up shop in a matter of months, according to this video on the Kickstarter page.
