SOUTH BOSTON, Va. - Sitting on a table just inside the front door of The Prizery is a small metal sign that sums up the movement sweeping Downtown South Boston. For the small group of community leaders and business entrepreneurs who have dared to dream, the renaissance they've begun in the once thriving downtown is transforming the character of the area and putting South Boston back on the map as a destination for both tourists and locals.
DANVILLE, Va. - Bob Cage's 45-plus year career as a tobacco auctioneer is built on two things ' stamina and practice. In fact, he says, most good tobacco auctioneers didn't go to auctioneering school to learn their craft. Real estate auctioneers go to school, and they have schools for auctioneers, generally in the mid-West for auctioning cattle, he said.

A fantastic place for the arts - theater shows, music events, an art gallery. Ticketed events include international and local groups. Wonderful Broadway type shows - comedies, musicals, and more. Plus a great rental space for special events, along with children's programs. All in a renovated old tobacco building. Really really cool place.
