Culture

  • Culture is also emphasized in Mason City through a variety of avenues such as the North Iowa Area Community College Auditorium, Mason City Community Theater and the Stebens Children’s Theater.
  • If not the theater, you may want to visit one of the local museums. Local museums include Charles H. MacNider Museum, Kinney Pioneer Museum, and Meredith Wilson’s Boyhood Home.
  • Or you might be more of a nature buff, if so, Lime Creek Nature Center is where you should visit. The center features both live and static displays of birds, reptiles, mammals, fish and insects. An outdoor amphitheater, hands-on nature displays and over four miles of trails through prairie, forest and wetland habitat provide remarkable experiences.
