Where else can you see principals of the NYC Ballet, HD live transmissions from the Metropolitan Opera and National Theatre in London, Alvin Haley and other dance troupes and special artsy movies for at most $25 a ticket? You can also see live opera nights, live local theater and live musical theater and park your car for free.

It is hard to write a review for this arts center as they have changing events. However, I was recently there for the 'Wild and Scenic' film festival and discovered a few things:
- the theater is lovely with a wonderful stage and great screen
- the foyer was used for a great art exhibit, including sculptures and various print and drawings.
- wednesday's there is a local farmers market (pretty sure this will stop sometime this fall)
Example events from the upcoming program:
- improvisation workshop
- manhattan film festiva
- several theater productions

If you are looking for non-outdoor pursuits and some interaction with locals, consider visiting LPCA. Their calendar of events is:

This art center features Shakespeare plays and has a gallery free to tourists we didn't see the play while here but the gallery of bird decoys was very beautiful and interesting.

On Wed July 4 I attended a concert in Mids Park in Lake Placid NY by the Lake Placid Sinfonietta. The Sinfonietta is a chamber sized professional orchestra that performs in Lake Placid and the surrounding communites. I enjoyed the concert, high quality professional music in a small town. They perform at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts on Sundays at 7:30 as well. If you are looking for something to do in Lake Placid that involves the arts I recommend a Sinfonietta concert. I really really enjoyed the concert.
