Ohio Village
The Ohio Village on the grounds of the Ohio History Connection's center, first opened in 1974 to grand reviews. Since then, the village has gone through several different permutations. Originally, the village was home to a number of craftspeople plying their trade and offering their work for sale. However, with cutbacks in state funding the village had to curtail these activities and some find craftsmen were forced out. In time, the village actually closed to the public for several years. However, the village is now open to the public on a regular basis. While the craftsmen have not returned, there are docents dressed in period clothing that can give a respectible interpretation of what would have been going on in that particular building. There is even cellular phone numbers visitors can dial for specific buildings that will give them a pre-recorded message about the building.
