The Donald W. Reynolds Visual Arts Center is the new downtown home for the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. The museum features visiting exhibits, original selections from its own collection, a theater showing a variety of foreign, independent, and classic films each week, and a restaurant. OKCMOA is also home to the most comprehensive collection of Chihuly glass in the world including the fifty-five foot Eleanor Blake Kirkpatrick Memorial Tower in the Museum's atrium.[62] The newly renovated art deco Civic Center Music Hall has performances from Oklahoma City Ballet and opera to traveling Broadway shows and concerts. Stage Center for the Performing Arts is home to many of the city's top theater companies. The building that houses Stage Center, originally called the Mummers Theater and designed by John M. Johansen, is a modernist architectural landmark,[63][64] with the original model displayed in MOMA in New York City.

Answer
Mendocino County offers a beautiful drive along highway 101 (from the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco or along the way through Marin and Sonoma Counties.) There are two distinct areas of Mendocino County: inland and coastal. Inland you have Ukiah, the county seat, with museums, theaters, and great restaurants. Willits offers walking tours of the former home of the famous racehorse Seabiscuit (Ridgewood Ranch), a county museum with Pomo Indian crafts (Mendocino County Museum), a railroad museum (Roots of Motive Power), and a fine year-round live theater (Willits Community Theatre) -- as well as several appealing restaurants right on Main St., which is Highway 101.
Take Highway 20 from Willits through the redwoods for a 1-hour drive to Ft. Bragg on the coast. A seaside village with impressive restaurants, art galleries, and and a laid-back sea village atmosphere. Seven miles south is the fabled village of Mendocino, where several movies were shot -- as well as the exterior shots for the long-running TV show, "Murder, She Write." Yes, Mendocino is Cabot Cove! Great galleries, shops, restaurants and spectacular ocean views. The drive along the coast south from there back to the Bay Area is memorable, with numerous little villages and along the way. Alternate routes offer scenic rural areas and wineries.
