Arts, Culture and Attractions

The art scene in Harbor Country is so much more than one might expect to find here. A Chicago newspaper columnist recently described this area as having more art per capita than the Second City, and who are we to disagree? You’ll see for yourself why so many internationally recognized artists call Harbor Country home. From large-scale marble, granite and bronze sculptures, to watercolor dune scenes, to fine glasswork and handcrafted jewelry, you’ll walk through each gallery with eyes wide open.

The Acorn Theater and Gallery spotlight’s the avant-garde and the traditional against the backdrop of the historic Featherbone building. The Dunes Summer Theater presents the very best in community and children’s theater. The New Buffalo Performing Arts Center is an intimate and comfortable setting for fine arts performances. The Vickers Theatre offers the avid filmgoer a taste of the international art film scene housed in what was once a livery. Art is at the heart of our community, and we’re happy to share it with you!
