DISCOVER THE McCOY-McMECHEN MUSEUM
When McCoy’s Grand Theatre matriarch Eunice Dasher McCoy passed away, she left a powerful legacy behind. In her will, she ensured that McCoy’s Grand would be preserved—not torn down, not radically altered—so future generations could experience the theatre much as audiences did in its golden age. Built in 1927, McCoy’s Grand has seen careful updates over the years, yet it remains remarkably true to its original character. Walking through the building today feels like stepping back in time, where the spirit of classic cinema, live music, and community theatre still lingers in every corner.
The McCoy-McMechen Theater & Museum brings this history to life. Inside, visitors will discover film archives, original architectural plans, vintage movie posters, historic photographs, production memorabilia, old tickets, performance schedules, and original signage—each piece telling part of the story of this beloved landmark and the generations it has served. A favorite destination during Hardy County’s Heritage Weekend each September, the museum welcomes visitors year-round who are curious about local history, classic movie houses, and the enduring role of the arts in small-town America. The Board of Directors of McCoy’s Grand remains deeply committed to honoring Eunice McCoy’s vision—preserving the museum’s heritage while keeping the theatre vibrant and active with performances, concerts, and community events.
We invite you to stop by, explore the exhibits, and experience the living history of one of Hardy County’s true cultural treasures: the McCoy-McMechen Theater & Museum.
COMING THIS SPRING!
We're hard at work on making a new space for audiences to enjoy in 2026. The new COURTYARD PLAZA AND GARDENS are underway to premiere in Spring of 2026. We'll be adding a new outdoor performance space, along with table seating. This new area will also include a recreation of Eunice McCoy's Gardens from the early days of McCoy's Grand. The new plaza and garden park will be available for everyone to enjoy. We just completed Phase One - thanks to our community partners - Hardman's Hardware in Moorefield and Trex in Winchester, VA. This coming spring - Phase Two - will take place to complete the project. We're excited to be able to share this new space with the community.
THE FALL FEST OPEN HOUSE IS BACK ON OCTOBER 24!
Fall Fest Open House at McCoy’s Grand is a free, all-day celebration that brings the community together in the heart of downtown Moorefield. Enjoy a full slate of live music with concerts on both the McCoy’s Mainstage and the outdoor Courtyard Plaza Stage, culminating in a special grand-finale performance for everyone to enjoy. Throughout the day, Fall Fest features Broadway Bingo, Pick-A-Pop, face painting, a cornhole tournament, museum tours, a silent auction, hourly door prizes, and a lively Fall Fest Plaza filled with local vendors, community organizations, and food trucks. With activities for all ages and free access to the arts, Fall Fest Open House is a joyful day of music, creativity, and community at McCoy’s Grand.
