Lynch is notoriously closely guarded as far as what his film, art, and music are about and what inspires him. And while he never comes out and says "X is about Y", you start to connect some dots together with this film (as well as about eight million more dots appearing). The theater is a fairly intimate theater. I don't think there are more than 100 seats. There are four paintings throughout the theater and curtains along the side, presumably to help with the acoustics. Rest rooms are on the lower floor, and the lower floor also has several vintage movie posters. Venue was very clean and well kept, and staff was professional and attentive. It might not be worth a trip for Bloomington by itself, but it is great to include if you are visiting.

The paid staff is very minimal. 95% of those that run the Buskirk are volunteers. We drive to keep arts and entertainment alive in this busy society.

From top shows like Rufus Wainwright to local shows like the Bloomington Symphony all the way to niche shows like Pride Film Festival or Rocky Horror...the Buskirk has it all.

There are lots of great eateries within walking distance including Uptown Cafe, Farm, Trojan Horse and Osteria Ragu. Try out a sweet treat at the chocolate shop next door or a classic Chocolate Moose Ice Cream cone. Just strolling the charming downtown after an event is very date worthy. Thanks to all the volunteers who keep this place running so smoothly!

The museum is fairly humble in terms of size and displays. Don't expect any new-fangled interactive digital kiosks to entice the young 'uns to start mandolin lessons. Still, it is four or five rooms of bluegrass cool. The costume, instrument, and poster collections are the real highlights in the museum. The cabin just outside the museum and the festival/camping grounds are also worth seeing. If my memory is correct, the admission fee for the museum was $4 per adult. The lady at the desk / museum store cash register was friendly and knowledgeable. Since there were no events going on in the festival grounds, she offered to let us drive around to see the stages, cabins, and an great old touring truck. Before leaving, we spent a half hour and $30 in the museum store. They had lots of great countrified and bluegrass-themed gifts, shirts, books, CDs, etc. Next time I head toward Brown County to see the autumn leaves, I will definitely stop back in. Not that this is what it is all about, but I got more twitter and Facebook mileage out of photos from here than all the trees-on-hills shots put together.

The Grunwald Gallery doesn't have any permanent collection - it provides a showcase for BFA, MFA,…read moreand sometimes visiting faculty or guest artists to display their thesis works or recent work. There are several exhibitions during the year, some of which overlap. The emphasis is on contemporary art and also design, with metal-work, ceramics, photography, and videography pieces in addition to painting and sculpture. I am not sure which show the two-star reviewer attended but the range of work on display varies greatly between shows and even within a single show. I actually rate the Grunwald between 3 stars and 5 stars. You can sometimes get a preview by checking the Grunwald's FB page and/or their website.

Half the charm of this event is the drive down from Indianapolis. 3.) We parked in a field and moseyed our way through the Inn's garden which is filled with produce they use in the on-site restaurant. 4.) 30+ Hoosier wineries offering samples (spirits this year too! -Huber Winery (Starlight) and Cardinal Spirits from Bloomington (one of my personal favorites) 5.) the setting is super laid back in a field with live music and a BYOC vibe (bring-your-own-chair) 6.)

There were even a lot of men winos too. The event can get pretty busy, so the places to sit fill up very quickly. It's a long event, so I would recommend bringing chairs, blankets, or somewhere to sit at. Standing on your feet the entire event and drinking, especially if the weather isn't ideal (90 degrees when I went, woof!) is exhausting, so having a comfy spot is ideal. Come with the attitude that you're there for a great time and will have plenty to drink! The lines can sometimes be a little long, and there were rude comments from people about others getting more than one sample per booth. We're all there for a good time, and they won't run out, so hold the negativity! The food and drink vendors are amazing! Everyone was nice, helpful, and offered recommendations. There's something for everyone -- including beer and liquor vendors. It is primarily wine but there is plenty of variety! The only thing I would recommend improvements on is the bathroom situation. There are maybe 10 portapotties with long lines and they were NOT kept up with well. Dirty, no toilet paper, and the hand washing stations weren't working. The only negative in an otherwise fabulous event. Make it a whole weekend. Brown county is beautiful. My group rented a cabin and then enjoyed the wine fair. It was perfect!

There are claw machines, a couple of virtual reality chairs, and some fun game rooms, by which I mean the room itself is a game. The virtual reality likely shows movies that have a lot of movement, and the chairs move to help simulate the motion. I was with my kid, so the novelty wore off very quickly. There was one group of very loud and rowdy girls who were having a good time and seemed to want to make sure everyone knew it. Our favorite one was the room with the lasers where you have to cross without touching any. The next was the room with the light up floor where you have to knock out colors without hitting the red. Overall, there isn't a ton of variety. I like the idea, but the space is so small it might be limiting them a bit.
