As a premier performing arts center, Thrasher hosts various events, including concerts, theater productions, and community gatherings, featuring local and national artists. Its intimate setting allows for a unique experience, where audiences can enjoy performances up close, fostering a strong connection between artists and attendees.  Thrasher Opera House is a cultural hub that supports local talent and enriches the community through arts education and outreach programs.

Vines & Rushes Winery is situated on a family farm in Ripon, Wisconsin, where five acres of cold-hardy grapes, primarily Marquette, St. Pepin, and Petite Pearl, are cultivated. Owned by local couple Ryan and Megan Prellwitz, the winery reflects the rural charm of Wisconsin and is rooted in the family’s agricultural heritage. The tasting room is open year-round, offering visitors a chance to experience high-quality Wisconsin wines.
