The huge Sand Run Parkway covers over 990 acres of rolling hills, blossoming meadows, sharp ravines and high ridges. Inside this parkway, you’ll see hundreds of native wildlife, from red-tailed hawks to red foxes. Let your own inner animal out as you challenge yourself on the outdoor trails, or work off your extra adrenaline at the well-kept soccer field.
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.
