The popular monthly "Dinner and a Movie" Tuesday nights bring classic and popular old blockbusters to the big screen, with receipts from a meal in town garnering free admission. A $9 million renovation, completed in late 2014, restored and upgraded the 1923 facility, adding seating, reception areas, and a rooftop terrace, while making audio/visual improvements and allowing the theater to expand its cultural offerings.

The rest of the weekend is devoted to the display and sale of hundreds of works of art from all over the world at West Lincoln Park.
