ABOUT THE DISTRICT

A creative ecosystem built for working artists.

The Rivoli Arts District is a thriving community of independent artists, makers, and cultural institutions in the heart of La Crosse. We believe in art as a daily practice — not just a gallery event — and in building an economy that lets creative people do their best work right here.

Artists at the center

We exist to help working artists build sustainable careers and meaningful connections in our community.

Open doors

Our spaces are meant to be experienced — studios you can visit, shows you can attend, artists you can meet.

Rooted in La Crosse

We're building something local, lasting, and worth showing up for — one block, two buildings, countless stories.

TWO LOCATIONS

One block. Two worlds.

Side by side on Fourth Street North, the Arts Building and the Theatre each tell a different chapter of the same story.

INDEPENDENT CINEMA

An iconic independent movie house serving La Crosse since 1920. Films you can't find at the multiplex, cult nights, special events, and great pizza — all under one historic roof.

STUDIO COMMUNITY

Home to over 30 independent working artists, the Arts Building is where creativity happens every day. Browse original work, discover new makers, and take something home made by hand right here in La Crosse.
