About Fort Salem Theater
Fort Salem Theater is a nonprofit performing arts venue in the heart of Salem, New York.

Parking is straightforward around Fort Salem Theater. There’s parking behind the theater, plus a grassy lawn area to the right and a small public lot behind the gazebo at 197 Route 22. The venue sits in a rural setting, so traffic and public transit options are limited.
