Calling on all fossil and rock enthusiasts out there. Beginning Thursday, November 21, 2024, from noon to 2 p.m., the Ohio State University at Lima campus will be unveiling its new interactive geology museum exhibit in its life and physical science building!

The museum has multiple QR codes that can teach you all about the fossils and minerals on display.
Domesticity is defined as the quality or state of being domestic or domesticated along with domestic activities or life. The Allen County Museum is hosting a new exhibit titled "The Art of Domesticity," highlighting the activities that a 19th- or 20th-century woman would do in the home. Things like knitting, porcelain painting, weaving, and more. Many of those can now be seen as fine arts. The show is a combination of current museum artifacts and the artwork of five contemporary female artists that show how decorative arts were intertwined in a woman's life at home.
It's gearing up to be an interesting show at Artspace/Lima next week. Much like an "open mic" night, Artspace/Lima presents its first "open wall" exhibit. It's a chance for individuals who dabble in the arts to have their work displayed in a gallery setting. Executive director Sally Windle says she is impressed with the quality and variety of work they received in the "first come, first served" call for work.
Artspace/Lima is trying a new event to give emerging artists a chance to exhibit their work. The "Open Wall" exhibit is a first-come, first-served opportunity to get a 6 x 6 space in the Ellen Nelson Gallery. The goal is to foster artistic expression and community engagement. There are 20 spaces available, and the organizers hope that they will fill up quickly. The work will be exhibited from July 9th through the 19th and is open to any artist looking to exhibit their work and have their 15 minutes of fame.
