The ELCO Performing Arts Center is a small theater located downtown. After being built in 1924 and undergoing two name changes it became the ELCO in 1934. Ownership switched hands several times but the end of the ELCO appeared to be in sight when owner William Miller died in 1987. In 1990 the city bought the theater to prevent further deterioration from vacancy. Also that year a commission was formed by some locals to oversee the restoration.
