Actor's Guild of Parkersburg The birth of the community organization now known as the Actors Guild of Parkersburg, Inc., goes back nearly 60 years to before the start of World War II. The building that is the Guild's current home at 724 Market Street dates to 1916.  In the early 40's, some area radio personalities and theatre buffs established a group know as "The Players." About 1950, this group was joined by others who had moved into the Parkersburg area with the opening of the Dupont and Borg-Warner plants. Thus began the Actors Guild of Parkersburg.

The Ice House Built circa 1910 to store apples, the four-floor yellow brick building had other uses through the 20th century including a furniture store, health club and teen center. Existing space is now rented for commercial and community activities as well as being used by Morgan Arts Center.  Literally thousands of people have enjoyed, bought, practiced and made art and theatre in the Ice House since its acquisition. The future promises even more. The Old Opera House In 1910, Annie G. Packette, whose family tree included George Washington, raised $50,000 and employed a Washington, D.C. architect to design and construct the New Opera House. It was a classic theatre structure, complete with fly-space for hanging scenery above the proscenium stage, an orchestra pit and a curved balcony. It seated 500 people.  It lived through two world wars, a depression and the advent of radio. But in 1948 its stage went dark. Then in 1971, Dixie Kilham, owner of Hilltop House in Harpers Ferry, and Robert and Diane Angel contacted the owners of the building, Mr. and Mrs. Augustine Todd about using the old abandoned theatre for local productions.   Tamarack Tamarack: The Best of West Virginia is the nation’s first showcase of handcrafts, fine art and regional cuisine.  It comprises a warmly decorated retail store, working studios for resident artisans, a fine art gallery, a theater, and A Taste of West Virginia food court,  managed by The Greebrier.  Additional meeting space is available in the Tamarack Conference Center.
