The Families That Built Akron

This collaborative community exhibit aims to highlight the everyday people of Akron’s 200-year history and discuss the many ways that Akron residents have shaped the city’s culture and identity. The exhibit will incorporate photographs, objects, and other materials shared by Akron residents interested in the project. The goal of the exhibit is to inspire visitors to think about what role their own families have played in their local communities.

The exhibit will be displayed in the Manor House so ticket will also include a self-guided Manor House tour.
