Lincoln Theatre Built in 1928, the Lincoln Theatre was once the pride and joy of the King-Lincoln District. Located on Long Street on the near east side, the theatre was home to Central Ohio s flourishing AfricanAmerican culture and was a Midwest precursor of the Harlem Renaissance. The beautiful Egyptianthemed auditorium has been host to such performers such as Etta James, Ray Charles, Sammy Davis Junior and Nancy Wilson. After many years of vacancy and neglect, the Lincoln Theatre Association was formed to revitalize this historic landmark. The ballroom can accommodate up to 200 for a seated reception and 300 for a cocktail reception Rent is $1000 for up to five hours in the ballroom on the day of the reception, with a per hour rate of $125 after the first 5 hours.
