Park Theatre Holland, MI

The Park Theatre Foundation provides West Michigan communities with entertainment and culture while empowering artists, championing self-expression, and preserving the historic Park Theatre. With a rich history dating back to 1886, the Park Theatre has been a cherished venue for generations of movie-goers and community events. Originally built as a woodworking mill and feed store, it later became the Colonial Theater. Destroyed in a fire and rebuilt, it reopened as the Park Theatre in 1936. For over six decades, the Park Theatre thrived as a beloved cultural hub, eventually closing in 1984. In December of 2001, the Park Theatre Foundation, a newly created nonprofit organization, took over ownership of the building, and a new chapter began.

Whole Hearted Winery

Whole Hearted Winery is a special place. The owners, Dan and Brenda Weiand, have a charity just up the road where they have a warehouse. They receive weekly product from Bed, Bath and Beyond, Lowes, and Home depot. So they have pretty much everything that these stores carry in limited stock. And here's the kicker.... it's all free. Totally pay it forward. So if you need something, or you know of someone needing something, you just contact Dan and it's yours. You just can't take it for resale. And to fund this, Whole Hearted Winery opened its doors in September 2019. A dollar from each bottle sold goes towards their charity. The shows will be held upstairs above their new tasting room that just opened right before Christmas 2021.
