Built in 1908 and greatly enlarged in 1912, the Classical Revival-style Levoy Theatre is a small-scale example of the movie palaces built throughout the United States in the early-twentieth century. Featuring vaudeville and motion pictures, the theatre was the focus of entertainment in the working-class town of Millville through the mid-1940s.

The Trust grant will fund a preservation plan and marketing/feasibility study for the Theatre. These documents will be crucial in efforts to preserve the theatre, ensuring that it becomes a viable component in the revitalization of Millville.
