Lehi City Arts Center
Lehi, Utah
After the John Hutchings Museum of Natural History moved to the Memorial Building in 1996, the former museum was renovated and reopened as the Lehi City Arts Center. Limited by its 100-seat auditorium with a combined green and dressing room, the Lehi Arts Council announced plans in 1998 for a new performing arts complex with a 1,800 seat Broadway theater, a smaller 248-seat theater, and a theater-in-the-round. Pledges were secured for $6 million of the necessary $15 million, but fund-raising grew difficult due to competition from other Utah County arts initiatives and the 2002 Winter Olympics Games. In 2003, Lehi City unveiled a $150,000 renovation of the existing arts center.

Curtain Set to Fall on Davis Drive-In
Deseret News, 10 April 1991, page B4
Article Summary:
The Davis Drive-In opened for business in the spring of 1991, even
though the 41-year-old theater was up for sale. The theater sat on 23
acres of land and was owned by Tony Rudman of Westates Theaters, "who
is selling the site under the belief that it is worth more as prime
commerical property than as a drive-in." The theater could accommodate
800 to 900 cars for each of its two screen. If the drive-in didn't sell
in 1991, it might have opened for the 1992 season.
