"We really enjoyed the Tri-City Jazz Orchestra concert.  We have moved into the area since November 2020 and have really missed good music – jazz and classical.  We appreciate your efforts to bring a more diverse musical entertainment to the area.  We traveled an hour and half to listen to the concert and it was well worth the trip!"  

- Grace Stuart and Keith Jahnke

"Have seen several shows at the Lincoln. People working there very polite and willing to help if any questions. Really enjoy visiting."
