The renovated Boone Theater is set for its grand opening in the 18th and Vine Jazz District. A formal program begins at 2 p.m. inside the theater, followed by a ribbon cutting out front. From 3 to 5 p.m., neighbors can stop by a community open house featuring the history of the Boone, student artwork from Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, and a look at the building's future tenants. It is a meaningful milestone for one of Kansas City's historic cultural spaces.
