Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 74 reviews
The epicenter of Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant." The events that took place on Thanksgiving 1965 became a song, the song became a record, the record a movie. The movie was filmed in 1968 where the actual events took place on location at The Old Trinity Church, which became The Guthrie Center founded by Arlo Guthrie, and named for his parents, Woody & Marjorie Guthrie in 1991. The Center continues the Guthrie Family philosophy of a place for interfaith worship, cultural exchange especially with music and art, and of course a place to eat (during seasonal performances). 2015 marks the 50th anniversary of the "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" and the old church will celebrate in style with services and performances that will put a smile on your face and nourish your heart.

Hardly anyone there for the Thursday night hootenanny but had a great time. The 2 performers on a cold , February Thursday night were wonderful. The center oozes with good vibes.

We had an opportunity to stop by this wonderful location. We plan to return when the weather is a little better. But what we saw is impressive. The gift shop is quite extraordinary, with a friendly and professional staff. You won’t be disappointed stopping here.
