Year round wonderful exhibits
This fantastic theatre hosts some of the best talent in the country and it's only a 3 minute walk from the building ! I saw Jerry Seinfeld as a stand up comedian here. Last minute ? Don't let it discourage you. Often times you can get tickets at the door. If there are no tickets, there are scalpers, but defintely beware. Have one person in your party pay the scalper only when the others get past the entrance !
