After flooding in 2008, the theater was restored to its original beauty. Great chandeliers, ceilings, vintage organ. Well done.

Brucemore is a living landmark that charts the history of Cedar Rapids. The 26-acre, park-like estate invites exploration of its history, gardens, grounds, and 21-room mansion. Each season, nature's changing beauty entices visitors to the estate offering new experiences. Concerts, theater, festivals, garden walks, holiday celebrations, and tours enliven the site and celebrate the heritage of the community.
This place is a must-see if you are in Cedar Rapids.Tucked away on a gorgeous piece of property just minutes from downtown is a complex of interesting buildings that have been constructed over a period of decades by a number of prominent civic figures. It is free to walk the spacious grounds which has a pool, a pond, an expansive front lawn and agricultural & botanical structures. A modest fee is charged for a wonderful guided tour through most rooms in the mansion. But first one can get oriented to the estate by visiting the ticket office/musum/gift store where the story of Brucemore is told through photos and short movies. I would highly recommend a visit.

Expanded 50,000 sq. ft. building opened in July 2012 with a world-class exhibit "Alphonse Mucha: Inspirations of Art Nouveau" featuring 230 pieces direct from Prague and London. Two other galleries feature rotating exhibitions on the culture, art and history of Czechs and Slovaks. And don't miss the two-room 1880's Czech immigrant house that was home to five generations. See the new museum store filled with European treasures and gifts. Stroll down Czech Village and also visit the exhibition, "Rising Above: the Store of a People and the Flood" located a 87 Sixteenth Ave. SW
This is a one-of-a-kind experience especially if you’re from this heritage. It was like reliving some of the great moments that I’ve heard my great grandparents talk about. They also have an awesome gift shop and the whole experience is totally worth it we loved every minute of it and highly recommend especially if you’re from Czechoslovakia heritage
