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.

The Orpheum
Beaver City Press, 10 June 1910, page 1
The opening of the Orpheum moving picture show at the Jones hall last Friday night proved an agreeable surprise to Beaver's show patrons. The program was varied and delightful and the pictures were excellent. The songs by Miss Neilson have been secured permanently and the management states that a high standard in pictures and music will be maintained. Judging by the shows given this week they mean what they say.
The Jones hall has been fitted up to be an attractive amusement hall and a late type picture machine installed. Two performances are given each evening and the program is changed three times a week.
