Plenty of parking and easy to get in and out quickly. The event calendar is changed regularly and the productions always professional and well done. If you enjoy going to the theater, the Heritage Center is highky recommended.

This AMC is relatively easy to get to and there are a number of good food places nearby if you want "dinner and a show." Parking in the very large lot is easy since attendance is low. We have seen a number is shows where the theatre was nearly empty (saw one that was a "private screening"). One complaint: the parking lot needs a serious resurfacing; beware the pot holes and low spots. Service is fine. Limited staff like everywhere, but the job gets done. I can see why some might pass on applying. Here's a story from 2 nights ago. I witnessed an angry customer show why customer service is a deterrent to young, new hires. An old guy gave a young new employee $X.05 to pay for tickets costing $Y.02. Change was to be $Z.03. Totally confused the kid. Why? No one knows how to make change any more because the cash register does the computation. And somehow the cash register didn't tell the kid the change. The old guy went ballistic. Yelling at the kid. Making a scene. Absolutely NO need for that. An older employee at the adjacent register helping us apologized, but the old guy wouldn't hear it--he continued. The adult employee said something like, "It doesn't help the kid by yelling at him." The old guy still went on and then even continued to grumble about it to his wife as we walked into the theater. What a crab (comment edited for publication ). Kudos to the adult employee for standing up for the kid! Concessions are as one would expect. Restrooms could be cleaned more often. Not horrible, but floors get a bit slick with moisture in the men's room. Theaters are nice. The chairs will rock, though this location is not equipped like the newer ones with recliners and with food service. Multiple screens make it easy to find a movie to enjoy. We will go back. Rating:

Theater was hot and the air conditioning was not on in that theater. Everyone that walked into the theater said it was hot. Spoke with the "manager" twice about it, before the movie started and was told he was working on resolving it. Spoke with the same "manager" after the movie and he downplayed the whole thing. Don"t plan to go back-last resort only.

The tours meet inside the DeSoto Hotel lobby area and you must pay in cash for the tour. Our guide…read morefor the night was Steve. Steve works at the local library and helps patrons with historical research, so he gets to hear a lot of ghost stories. The tour is a walking tour that winds its way around several blocks in town and even goes up the hill slightly to Bench street, so be prepared to walk. Steve mixes the history of the town with assorted ghost sightings and stories. He will even show you areas that were used to film "Field of Dreams". To round off the tour you get to go back inside the DeSoto for a little building history and the ghost stories there. One story which I found to be very striking is the "lady in black" especially since the hole was found in the wall last year after the flood. That is very eerie as that the spot she always disappears into. Remember the show "If Walls Could Talk"? A final stop in a quiet dark room to sit around a table and talk about our experiences if you wish, and the importance of learning the history of places. All in all it was definitely worth the money for the history, ghost stories and the entertainment. It was a fun evening and I would do it again just to hear the stories.

I am sure it is for efficiency when they get busy but I found the food system slightly weird. You order with the bartender who gives you a buzzer and then you have to walk out of the restaurant (still indoors) and down the hall to pick up your food. Not far but the concept is odd considing you are tipping the bartender for the total bill but they don't even bring your food. Additionally, because I was dining solo I carried my beer and belongings with me to pick up food because I did not want to leave my drink unattended. I mean it works but I still think it's weird.

My husband and I were here to see the "Wonder of Wood" exhibit. This is a free center where local…read moreartists can display and sell their art. They do ask for donations. The building used to be a hospital, with a healthcare facility attached. This center is in the old doctor's office area, hence the specimen door in the bathrooms. The retirement community is in the old hospital area of the building. The exhibit of woods was wonderful and I would have bought some of it had I had that kind of money. Most items that I really liked were "NFS" not for sale. I could see why. There was a collection of very old photos of Galena from the Alfie Mueller Collection that were fascinating. There is a room with some chairs and a short video of an interview of Mr. Mueller, who has passed away, that you should watch. This visit took us maybe one hour, maybe a little longer.

For example, in summer, beginning at the end of June they offer free films for kids from 6-8PM. You can also get Tango lessons. It occupies, I believe, a former hospital, and is adjacent to a long term care facility. So the "studios" are former patient rooms. There is gallery and exhibit space right at the entrance, and a small downstairs space for performances, and in winter, a farmer's market and craft fair. A pretty bare bones, utilitarian space. The art upstairs can be purchased. Entrance is free and donations are welcome. In a town where 85% of building are historic, I was kind of expecting the center to be in an old school, perhaps. But kudos to the town and the art community for even having a center for the arts. And for not naming it something like "Community Memorial General Center for The Arts." And most important, there is a lot of nice artwork here.
