The Rino is a plain decent-sized (200 capacity-ish?) room with a stage on one end and a soundboard at the other. The sound and lights, while not the loudest, clearest or brightest, are perfectly acceptable. There is a doorway that leads into a neighboring room. It looks like there might be a bar in there, however during my visits I've only seen bands setting up and selling merch. All ages are welcome, though during my visits, the audience has trended younger. Entertainment seems to be on the louder end including punk rock and metal bands, however I've seen hip hop and singer songwriters on the schedule. Unless larger national shows are booked, Mondays and Tuesdays are open mic nights. Wednesdays are open mic comedy nights.

My sister had read most of the books to them before they went so they were familiar with the stories. I loved that the books were in the exhibits.

I'm an avid collector of vintage children's books (including many first editions), so my standards are high! That's why I'm telling you: if you have kids, or if you're just a kid at heart who loves great stories, you have to visit The Rabbit Hole. It's an immersive, straight-up magical dream come to life. Adults and children appreciated the mastery of the designs throughout this place. It brings the books we all cherished growing up to life in a way I never thought imaginable. It costs $15 for each person and it's worth every penny. You walk by Madeleine displays on your way to Barbar, and The Last Stop on Market Street. Each one better than the last. Kids climbing, laughing, and embracing each one with an eye of awe. I learned about the author of story My Fathers Dragon and it was fascinating. So much so I went to the bookshop to buy a copy, along with other books and prints. And that's where such a beautiful experience went south. When I asked the two girls working in the shop about a book and a limited-series print, they were incredibly curt with me. They condescendingly told me I had already passed the book, making me feel like I had done something wrong. It instantly reminded me of when your mom gets frustrated with you simply because you don't know the answer to a question you're asking. It's a shame that such a breathtaking museum experience was bookended by such dismissive customer service in the retail shop. Go for the magic of the exhibits, but be prepared for a cold reception at checkout.

Long overdue review of this KC gem. If you love movies, love supporting local, and are looking for…read morea great weekday or weekend night out - look no further! It's impossible to visit Screenland and not feel the love of movies and the movie going experience all around you. Don't let the small size scare you away - even with some smaller theater sizes, they're dedicated to excellent quality of picture and sound. They seek feedback from their fellow movie goers to bring back nostalgic favorites, create events like outdoor movies and festivals, show movies that may have never seen a full theater release, partner with local businesses to create custom collectible ticket stubs for special screenings, even show movies on 35 & 70mm film - a rare occurrence in the US and something very special. Screenland's greatest, and my favorite, quality is that it naturally offers true sense of community - every time I'm there, strangers are interacting in small ways over their shared love of movies and unique experiences. Cheesy, but I think any other Screenland frequenter would agree.

I have really awesome pottery I have made myself, but I also find myself feeling more confident creatively! McKenzie is very easy to get in contact with, she is very responsive to any questions I have asked, and really does what she can to make sure you get the most out of your class. I also find them to be a really good value, you leave with a lot of pieces! Coming to Driftwood has really been such an enriching experience for my life, and I can't wait to become a member of the studio one day!

There was no question that I'd even need to shop around for a better deal or experience. Mike was top notch professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. On the big day, he quickly set up the equipment, played an additional memory slideshow and music, and made a bunch of our neighborhood kiddos weeks with his popcorn machine. The sound quality and screen quality was perfect, even as a Christopher Nolan film usually demands an IMAX.

We connected with Michael about hosting a movie night for our volunteers and staff at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, and he immediately responded to our request and scheduled a time for a site visit. From our first interaction, he was friendly, genuine, on time, and communicative without fail. He has immense knowledge about his industry & equipment and has an impressive arsenal of processes in place so that his team is ready for anything. We had to postpone our first date due to weather, and Michael was in communication with us the whole time we were working to reschedule. We even had a hiccup with our planned site the night of our rescheduled event, and he and his team pivoted their entire set-up process like it was nothing. As a person in the events industry, I cannot say enough about their unwaveringly calm demeanor and creative problem solving. The night of the event, they arrived with plenty of time to set up the screen, sound system, lights, and popcorn machine. Everything was set up on time and looked organized. The screen was bright and displayed the picture beautifully, and the sound system was top notch. Michael and his team worked tirelessly to make our event seamless so that our staff could enjoy the event as well, and they thought of every little thing. They were prepared for anything & the pinnacle of professionalism, and I cannot wait to work with them again!

Kansas City has a lot of annual arts events and festivals that are phenomenal; but Fringe Fest is…read morethe standout in my playbill. After a 2 year Covid break, the 2 week festival returned to Kansas City and runs until 7/31/22. Over 55 different productions are being presented across 15 venues over 2 weeks, which equates to almost 300 separate performances! There is also a visual arts display and film. The festival is in it's 18th year, but this is only my 3rd year to attend and as long as it returns so will I. You must purchase a $5 button and then with the button, you are allowed to purchase event tickets for $10 per show. The performances range from dance, stand-up, story telling, drama, music... from family entertainment to risque' adult themed cabaret. I have attended 3 events this past weekend and have seen an intense drama with adult language and violence, a one man comedy dealing with mental health issues and relationships and another one man presentation based on the biblical book of Ecclesiastes. I have never had a bad experience in the 3 years and 10+ shows I attended. I'm eager to finish out this weekend with at least 2 more shows. For only $10 I'm able to support local and traveling artists, attend an event at one of KC's top venues and walk away with a something to ponder. Open Your Mind and Support Local Art!
