The Ariel-Ann Carson Dater Performing Arts Centre is at 426 Second Ave. and is on the right hand side. The large marquee with a big red "A" is visible from a distance. Parking is available on the street.

From the North
Take Rt. 7 south. When you get to Gallipolis, pass under Rt. 35 (large bridge that crosses into W.Va.) at the northern edge of Gallipolis. Drive through about 3 miles of commercial stretch then the road jogs to the right and then to the left and you are in the old part of town in the 900 block of Second Ave. Go straight.

From the West
Take Rt. 32 east. Pick up Rt. 35 (to Gallipolis) in Jackson. Drive about a half hour and take the Gallipolis Rt. 160 exit which will take you into town. [once you exit off the 4 lane, you go about the distance of a block, turn left at the first light and right at the next one and then go about 3 miles through a residential area until you come to town]. Turn right on 2nd Ave. (also State Rt. 7) then follow directions from the 2nd paragraph above.

From the South
Take Rt. 7 north into town. Rt. 7 becomes 2nd Ave. Pass the open square of the city park on the right and the next block is where Ariel-Dater Hall is on the left. Visible is a large marquis for the Colony Theatre which is a few doors before the Ariel. (for more information, see the second paragraph above in “From the North.”).

From the East
From Charleston, take I 64 to the Winfield exit no. 39 which is Rt. 34 and go right for five miles, the road ends, go left on Rt. 35 and drive 30 miles to the Ohio River. Follow directions from the north above in first paragraph.
