Welcome to summer!

Things slow down at the Pella Opera House over the summer, but there are still a few special events coming up in July. Join us for a new family friendly event called Burgers, Brews and Bingo on Tuesday, July 7. It’s a fun social outing of burgers, brews and bingo at the Pella Opera House. Ticket includes a burger bar, your first beverage and a bingo card. Additional bingo cards will be available for purchase. Tickets are available for purchase below.

Youth are invited to the Chris Ortiz Ventriloquist Show on Thursday, July 23 at 10:30 am. As part of our Youth Entertainment Series (Y.E.S.), children — especially pre-school and early elementary — are invited to this free show sponsored by Vermeer Charitable Foundation and in collaboration with the Pella Public Library. Joining Chris on stage is a hilarious cast of characters straight from the suitcase, including Scooter the Arctic Penguin. Each character brings their own unique personality, humor, and surprises to the stage. Audience participation is a big part of the fun! In the afternoon at 1 pm, for kids who have finished 2nd grade and above, there is a ventriloquism and puppetry workshop where participants learn about ventriloquism, make a sock puppet, build a character, and work on a script. Registration is required [CLICK HERE].  The workshop will be approximately 1.5 hours. Sponsored by Leighton State Bank and the Pella Community Art Center.

PLUS, keep an eye on your mail and email! Information will be coming out July 1 about our new season of shows! Members have the first opportunity to purchase discounted tickets to our “Pella Corporation Present” series of shows as well as tickets to other shows. It’s going to be an amazing season, and we hope you will join us for music, fun and special events!
