The Celebration Company, a non-profit organization, relies on volunteer talent in all aspects of theatre. The Company provides a training ground for the actor's individual growth and experience, while exposing the audience to live theatre for its evaluation, appreciation, entertainment and education.
The Station was built in 1923 as a passenger station for the Big Four Railroad. It was the third station built for the line in Urbana, and the second one built on the site. Travellers boarding at Urbana could ride as far as Indianapolis to the east, and as far as Pekin to the west. Arriving passengers could transfer to the Wabash Railroad, which passed the building on the south side.
