In the community’s heyday, prominent Bay Cityians entertained family and friends in the third-floor ball rooms of their Center Avenue mansions. They also sought entertainment at one of the many theaters and opera houses featuring nationally renowned performers and vaudeville acts that operated at the time. An appreciation for the performing and visual arts lives on today and is enjoyed at unique venues throughout the year. Between the many cultural activities and special events offered in the Bay City area, our social calendars remain full!
