MARION, Ill. — The Marion Cultural and Civic Center has come back better than it was before a 1997 fire threatened it, the Southern Illinoisan reports.
That's as much as the outlet's own headline tells us. The American Times could not confirm further detail on the fire, the rebuild, or the venue's current programming from the reporting available.
We'll have more on the Civic Center's history when fuller reporting is available.
