Review:

The Thomas Center was once a private residence, later a hotel, and is now a thriving cultural events center where art exhibitions, historical exhibits, and musical events are staged. The center is worth a visit simply to admire the impressive Mediterranean revival style architecture of the building (which was completed in 1910), the beautifully restored period rooms, and the lovely landscaped gardens. You can browse the center at your own pace with the help of a cellphone audio guide or experience the unique atmosphere of the center as you view a current art exhibition or attend a Jewel Box Concert or the family Jest Fest.
