Spearfish

Writer's picture: David and Jennifer CookDavid and Jennifer Cook

One of the closest towns to Sturgis that we like to go to is a town called Spearfish. It is a cute town nestled in the black hills. It’s big enough to have everything you need, but not so big that it takes away from the town itself.

Located in the heart of downtown Spearfish is The Matthews Opera House & Arts Center. This center houses an art gallery that represents 48 Black Hills artists and also organizes art and music events in its upstairs space. David surprised me this past weekend and we got to attend a play called “Stepping Out” - he knows my love of theatre and inevitably gets me tickets to various shows. This showing was really well put together and just a lot of fun to experience. I greatly enjoyed myself. Additionally, we came out to be surprised by a little bit of snow fall during intermission., so David and I ran to the windows to stare out like little children. ❄️

Afterward we shared a dinner at Spearfish Streak and Smoke. Whew- it was packed and somewhat cold inside. Of course, the restaurant was understaffed (as most are these days), but everyone was friendly and nobody seemed particularly upset to wait over an hour and a half for their food to arrive. Things go at a different speed in the Midwest I guess.

We haven’t gotten to visit Spearfish Canyon yet OR the Termespheres Gallery, but it’s definitely on our list of things to do. Be on the lookout for those places on our blog soon!
