A unique movie theater and if you're in town on the right date you'll be able to see a classic. It's vintage yet comfortable. Don't park in the parking lot across the street or you'll get towed. Park on the street.

Don't let the title fool you. Adults enjoy this place, too. I find something intriguing every time I go. They usually feature one children's author at a time.

Shops
Curated (formerly It's About Time) has items there you won't see elsewhere. It's just across from the United Grocery store and the menfolk can have a beer at the barbeque place opposite the street while the ladies peruse Curated for treasures. It's the best place to find a hostess gift or just a find to take home for yourself.
