The Akron Civic theatre offers free tours of the theater 
one Tuesday a month at 12:00


 
 You will learn the history of the theatre and some "behind the scenes" information. The tour is approximately an hour and fifteen minutes. No guarantee that the ghosts will show up...but you never know!


Please call 330-535-3179 to reserve your spot because it fills up quick!

Please note that this tour is more adult oriented and not advisable for children under 13 years of age. *


* My daughter toured the theater at age 5 and while she didn't fully appreciate it, she didn't mind at all.

While most of the art on display is hands off, there are a few interactive displays for the kiddos to enjoy. 
This marble track is kinda mesmerizing.
Count how many YOUs there are in this mirror piece and how fast you can make the subject.


Upstairs and across the way, these carousel horses on are display.

On one visit we came across a photo booth, we climbed inside and posed as suggested (we couldn't see ourselves) but have yet to come across the work of art those photos have become!

Don't forget, there is also has an art room in the basement where your children can create a masterpiece!

    Local Honey from FarmGirl







    I recently came across Farm Girl's honey and thought I'd share as local honey is being touted as a great remedy for allergies.  It appears FarmGirls sets up to sell at area craft shows and farmers markets.  I asked about demonstrations/tours and was told they host a Honey Extraction and Fall Open House usually the first weekend in October.
