Bologna Performing Arts Center, Cleveland, Mississippi

Cleveland

Cleveland is a jewel of the Mississippi Delta. Known for its vibrant culture and history, bustling downtown and good old-fashioned Southern hospitality, it was formerly a stop on the Louisville, New Orleans & Texas Railroad. As such, the town grew from the late 1860s onwards, later becoming synonymous with blues music. Today, Cleveland is also home to a host of locally owned restaurants, antique stores and lively cultural institutions such as the Bologna Performing Arts Center, on the campus of Delta State University.
