Walk into History: Spirits of the Past…

Thank you to our guests and partners at Medina Show Biz and the Medina County Historical Society for an enjoyable tour of Medina’s historic past with the presentation of Spirits of the Past with fascinating stories about Medina’s roots.

For the 26th year, Medina County Show Biz Co., Medina County Historical Society and Medina County Arts Council (MCAC) collaborated to bring another successful ‘Walk into History: Spirits of the Past’ program. The event, held Sept. 8-10, attracted hundreds of attendees and included vibrant historical reenactments based on pioneers and events from Medina County’s rich past.

MCAC promoted the event, featuring actors stationed in locations on and nearby the Medina Square. Medina Show Biz auditioned and directed the actors, who read scripts written by Medina County Historical Society.

A special closing day program was also held at Miss Molly’s Tea Room on Sunday, Sept. 11 with Dine with the Spirits , where audiences watched historical reenactments while enjoying a great meal.

Sweetest Day…
