Walking Downtown

I had a couple of errands to run in downtown Bloomington, so today I'm posting a blip that is something different than my usual dog walk in Bryan Park scene. This theatre, originally called 'The Indiana," was built as a silent movie theatre in 1922. It is now a performing arts center called the Buskirk-Chumley in honor of the local family that was responsible for its restoration. They host about 200 events a year which makes it one of the busiest community theaters in the country. Next month they will be hosting the Lotus Music festival where my partner and I be seeing Mavis Staples perform. I bought the tickets today. After leaving the box office, I crossed the street to take some pictures. This 1940s automobile drove by just in time for me to catch it going past the theatre.
