The town of Tryon is tiny, and there's not much to do in the evening, but luckily there is the…read moreTryon Theater. With one showing a day. At 8:00. One movie. So, limited options, but I would recommend going even if it's a movie you've already seen. It's an experience. The building is old and visiting the theater is honestly like stepping back in time. It was built in the 1930's. You buy your tickets at the small window outside (with cash!) and enter into the one-room theater. OK, everything is dated, and not fancy like the mega-plex theater you are used to, but it is soooo cool! We go to see a movie here almost every time we visit Tryon and my kids think it is a real treat. The concession stand in behind the theater seating, so if you need to get up for a snack you can keep watching the movie, that's cool. The bathrooms are teeny-tiny, which is kind of neat, and has never been a problem with long lines. This past week we saw the Lego Movie. Which came out in regular theaters around December maybe? So it takes a few months for movies to get here. Despite that they still charge $8 a ticket, which seems a bit steep for a movie that has been out so long, but I figure the cost of operating this place in a small town must be pretty high, so I'm ok with that. Overall, cool, cool theater. If you are in the area I highly recommend it.

The authenticity of this curation of artists is soul-stirring. Upon entering Mirrorball Gallery, my senses were awakened. The cool, open airy space smelled fresh pleasant: the art on display invited me to pause, consider and wonder at each element within the piece. Lively music played as I perused through two(!) levels of the space. Vincent and Alex are friendly and warm people who are eager to share their vision with everyone who enters. If you are searching for contemporary art for your home or workplace, Mirrorball Gallery is worth the time to visit and enjoy.

Stairs are the only option to get to the second-floor gallery as the elevator got damaged by Hurricane Helene. Parking is on the street and in public lots. I found out about the Art in Bloom exhibit that was happening and made sure to fit it into my plans. The artwork and flower displays were upstairs. I was there the last day and they still looked amazing. I was thrilled I got to see the creativity. The staff was very friendly and welcoming here, and even provided me with a tour of the facility. The Center has performing arts so I joined the mailing list so I could find out about upcoming theatre performances and concerts. Classes and workshops are offered too. This is a great asset to the community.
