You really had to look into the photos and the more you looked the deeper the meaning of the photo. The photos were extremely reasonable and priced where anyone could afford them. We purchased photo of the Lincoln's and there was a chucky doll that was placed with them. The kids loved it. We also purchased a couple shirts that appear to be well made and prices very affordable. There was a vendor that made art with old silverware that was so neat. The lady working was so nice and there was a vendor that had explained her placement of chucky in her photos and some other hidden things she placed in her art. We had a very nice conversation with the lady working. We loved the store and really look forward to visiting again.

Studio on 6th is a mix between several different things. A large portion of their shop (maybe the whole shop?) is an artists collective where they sell all sorts of wares from jewelry to clothing to bags and kitchen items. There is also an area in the back where they sell a small collection of vintage clothing. I got a great 1970's dress for about $20 and they also had a few adorable hand tea-dyed vintage slips and hand-dyed tie-dye items. I also purchased some amazing hand-made hammered copper earrings (for under $10!) as a gift and could have continued all day if I hadnt dragged myself out of the store. This place is really everything you could want out of a gift shop. Its filled with amazing, personal creations by local artists, its run by friendly, helpful people, there are nice little surprises like vintage clothing and hand-carved wooden kitchen items and you get the feeling that every time you go back there will be new, interesting things.

We were in the back due too having a truck. But it was a great view. And I love the people watching.. My husband liked the nachos. I brought my own popcorn. Very clean facility. And friendly people.

Springfield, Illinois ---…read more There are only about 338 drive-in movie theaters left in the USA (from about the 4300 peak), so I attend & SUPPORT all of them. The "Route 66 Twin Drive-In Theater also has Route 66 in its favor. It's unique "no speaker poles" parking allows the 1st cars arriving to set the pace. Tall vehicles in the back (where "Flo" & I park), gets to see the crowd, as well as the movie. The "experience" is why I attend drive-in's. Watching people with their creative pick-up truck seating, people walking around with their buddies, kids in their PJ's & families being families. The $7.50 ticket price is fair & the concession prices are fair too (not LOW, but fair). SUPPORT Drive-In's! Attend & buy their concessions to keep them in business for yourself & for the future! #RunAwayBill #DUSA2018 #DriveInMovieTheaterRAB #Route66 #Route66RunAwayBill #HistoricRoute66 #USroute66 #MotherRoad #Ruta66 #WillRogersHighway #MainStreetOfAmerica #RAB66_2018 05.19.18 "Run-A-Way Bill" was here!

Their vinyl collection was pretty big for a small store and also very organized. The prices here are exceptionally good, you can find loose records for literal cents ¢ if you're looking to paint them.

The staff here was VERY welcoming as we entered and explained to us what each floor was. Entry here is completely free! The first floor had a lot of history of Illinois and the common species that could be found. When I say history, it went back millions of years ago. It more of a science exhibit. It was very interactive for little ones with pull out drawers, spinning cranks, and windows at kid level for them to see fossils. We then went to the basement level that was the kid's area. My son loved it. And it was crowded with other kids who loved it. There was a pit to excavate fossils, another area to examine TONS of fossils and bones. My son particularly loved driving the fake jeep lol. It was a very fun experience for us. There was a whole other level dedicated to art that we did not get to see, but maybe the next time we are in the area we will!

The Native American artwork was one of my favorites. I enjoyed seeing the beautiful beadwork. They did not have the theater showing anything the day that we went. So I would love to go back to see their theater. They often have kids events, so check their website to see if there's any special items going on. The basement level is a hands-on kids area for kids to play and explore. They also take donations since admission is free. I definitely plan to go back again.
