The Chinese Theatre in Hollywood is the most famous movie theater in the world and one of the most recognizable Los Angeles landmarks.

It was opened in May 1927 by Sid Grauman, who was building upon his success with the nearby Egyptian theater.

Grauman is credited with single-handedly moving the focus of the Los Angeles entertainment industry from downtown LA to Hollywood, with all its accompanying fanfare. He owned a one-third interest in the building, with Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks holding the other two-thirds.

The theatre currently houses the most enormous IMAX auditorium globally, and it is the only IMAX theatre to actually have a curtain.

It is equally famous for what is on the outside, with hundreds of thousands of people visiting each year to see and touch the footprints and handprints of the favorite stars immortalized there. 

When the 1977 premiere of the original Star Wars film was celebrated at the theatre, some of its most famous stars were captured in cement. You can still see the footprints of C-3PO, R2-D2, and Darth Vador near the entrance.

The perfect gift for wooden jigsaw puzzlers, classic car enthusiasts, and Hollywood lovers, this traditional adult wooden jigsaw puzzle can be done time and again. Our wooden jigsaw puzzle artists have included many shaped whimsy wooden jigsaw puzzle pieces that match the theme of the painting, and we have integrated them in ways that will delight and surprise you as you put the wooden jigsaw puzzle together.

Michael Young

Michael Young, born in 1952 in Kansas City, Kansas, is an American artist renowned for his evocative paintings that capture the essence of American life. His dedication to his craft was evident from a young age, inspired by his father, Eugene, who nurtured his early interest in art. At seventeen, he enrolled in a two-year Commercial Art program in Salina, Kansas, which laid the foundation for his artistic journey. After graduation, he worked at an architectural illustration studio in Kansas City, Missouri, where he honed his skills in perspective and rendering. This experience ignited a passion for fine art, leading him to open a studio/gallery in Leavenworth, Kansas.

In 1978, seeking to deepen his understanding of the human form, Young moved to New York City. He studied at the Art Students League and the Salmagundi Club and took private anatomy lessons with renowned instructor Bill Weltman. These studies enriched his ability to confidently and precisely incorporate figures into his work. Young's paintings, characterized by their nostalgic themes and intricate detail, are particularly intriguing due to his unique blend of realism and romanticism. His works have been exhibited across the United States and are included in various private and corporate collections.

Among his notable achievements, Young was commissioned to create a mural for the Kansas State Capitol, commemorating the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case. This work, a testament to his commitment to capturing pivotal moments in American history through art, has left a lasting impact. Currently residing in Kansas City, Kansas, Young continues to produce art that resonates with audiences, drawing from his rich experiences and deep appreciation for the American narrative.
