What an absolutely amazing opening night for The Broadway in our beautiful historic downtown district — a smashing success with “Nashville Christmas!”

This hardworking team of young visionary-entrepreneurs has taken the crown jewel of our community, and in one night, I believe, exponentially affected the trajectory of our community. This event was history in the making.

The drawing power that unique, exquisite, elegant venues like this have in our community will be realized in the next few seasons. The feeling in the air for me was, “A rising tide lifts all boats.”

Albert Lea, I believe our time has come!

Our community is incredibly blessed with two new and very distinct venues: The Barn of Chapeau Shores and The Broadway. Both buildings have been rescued, redeemed and revived by local entrepreneurs. What Chad and Jayne Iverson and The Century Partners have done in and for our community are legacy gifts. We highly commend both groups and honor them for their lives’ work!

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
— Margaret Mead

Thank you to the Century Partners!
