Arts/Culture/Theatre

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

Rockford's arts and culture scene is one of many facets. Whether it's a trip to J. R. Kortman's, a small, upscale shop and gallery in downtown Rockford, a day spent at the Rockford Art Museum, Illinois' largest public art museum outside Chicago, or a night at the theatre, Rockford has something for every taste.
