100 American Craftsmen is always on the calendar. Can't wait for the new expansion!

Had the wonderful opportunity to see “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare” at the Taylor Theater. I have attended several shows at the theater which have all been super delightful but this one was by far super delightful and extraordinary! The time went by so quickly that I was hoping for another show! Many kudos to the hard working individuals who put this wonderful show together. It is very apparent that all of their hard work and diligence paid off. This theater is truly a gem. And the actors and directors are the best of the best. Thank you so much for a wonderful performance.Looking so forward to many, many more. ❤️

As a business owner in Lockport for 25 years I have a soft spot for the Kenan Center. Their ability to cross the ages with programming tha is both fun and education is an asset to Lockport. From the first time I was the Book Fairy the Peter Rabbit Tea, to Winterfest and lending a hand with dinner theater in Irish Garb or pour beer for the beer and wine fest everyone I worked with was a delight. They are like extended family. Their commitment to the City is shown in the new building that they worked so hard to raise funds for for so long and its finally happening. What a time to watch where they go next.

Charging an entry fee for a “community” nonprofit event creates unnecessary socioeconomic barriers and hurts the very vendors it’s supposed to support. Multiple vendors said foot traffic was slow — when people have to pay just to walk in, fewer come, fewer shop, and vendors lose out. Nonprofits should be partnering with vendors to help them thrive, not putting a toll booth at the door.
