Northern Expressions Arts Council

The Northern Expressions Arts Council was formed in November 2011 by residents of Underwood interested in restoring the Rose Theater.  The Rose Theater is a Quonset-hut style movie theater constructed in Underwood in 1949.  It is the only theater of this style in North Dakota and one of only sixteen remaining in the nation.  The first phase of the restoration projection – sealing the roof- was completed  in Fall 2012.  The Northern Expressions Arts Council is launched its membership campaign in Fall 2012.
