Forgotten Ohio: Ghost Towns and Ghostly Places
September 15 - October 29
This exhibit is an invitation to step across the threshold between Ohio’s present and its past. It is a journey through the forgotten corners of the state, proving that while time eventually reclaims everything, the spirits of these places—and the people who built them—never truly leave.
