| '''Moving Pictures''' or '''Motion Pictures''' were very popular at Olentangy Park. There was a '''Theatorium''' attraction, also known as the '''Motion Picture Exhibit''' or '''Motion Picture Building'''. The July 1907 fire that destroyed the first building (the Theatorium) was started by a firecracker thrown onto the roof. It destroyed the primary Theatorium building<ref>"Boy Leads His Two Sisters Out of a Fire at Park." ''Columbus Evening Dispatch.'' 5 July 1907. Pg. 13.</ref> and spread to other nearby exhibits like [[Tours of the World|Hale's Tours of the World]] and the [[Photographic Gallery]]. The motion picture building was rebuilt the following year as the Motion Picture Exhibit. It reopened on May 2, 1908.<ref>"Olentangy Park Concerts." ''Columbus Evening Dispatch.'' 2 May 1908. Pg. 10.</ref>
