Show your significant other that you have a uniquely romantic view of your relationship when you take her to the Riverside Art Museum. This is an ideal place to meet and take in all the exceptional art that is displayed here. From various media to different themes, this is where the two of you will enjoy strolling from one eye-catching exhibit to the next. There's also a gift shop to stop into before you depart, and by picking up an art print or a souvenir, you'll demonstrate how much your sweetheart means to you, and how your love is a constant work in progress.

The Fox Theatre in Riverside exudes a nearly palpable vintage charm. When you consider its history, it's no wonder that this haven for actors and performances of all kinds has a unique history and drama all its own. Initially featuring vaudeville performers, the theater soon began to screen films in the wake of the move away from vaudeville-type performances. Perhaps because of its proximity to Hollywood, this was a favorite entertainment venue for filmmakers to screen their soon-to-be-released movies for lucky audiences. The Fox holds the distinction of being the first place that Gone with the Wind was publicly screened. Various types of shows, concerts, and performances still take place here today.

For fun, exhilaration, and exercise, hit the trail! But this just isn't any ordinary trek, this is the popular Santa Ana River Trail. This is an extensive, winding trail that runs along the Santa Ana River and offers walkers, hikers, joggers and bikers an excellent way to get out of the city and get closer to nature while getting some great exercise. The path stretches out over 70 miles, so there is plenty of room for you and your fellow trail-dwellers.

You never know where the next star of stage or screen will come from. That's what makes the Riverside Children's Theatre such a truly magical place. This entertainment organization has been the leader in fostering both theatrical instruction and performances of the area's most talented young thespians since 1957. This acting school also regularly presents various stage productions, plays, musicals and other opportunities for budding performers to gain valuable experience on the stage.
