Explore an old sandstone quarry at Deep Lock Quarry. Hike along the miles of challenging outdoor trails to get a view of Akron that you cannot see from anywhere else. Once you reach the top, you can look out across the forest, past the Cuyahoga River and down to the milled, swamp-like floor of the quarry.
Dedicated to enriching lives through modern and contemporary art, the current Akron Art Museum covers 20,000 square-feet of open gallery space and showcases regional, national and international art created since 1850. In addition, the museum offers many opportunities to "live creative" through programs that include films and video, lectures, workshops, tours, concerts, and public art projects.
