Culture
A walk through one of the historic towns can give you an idea of what was and what is. You sense the rich history in the old, stately homes and feel the present with a friendly wave from the locals. The feelings merge, giving the visitor the urge to explore, and, fortunately, there are many avenues to do so.
History buffs can check out the many museums that exhibit
Warren County's role in world events that reverberate into today. Art lovers can walk through a gallery that boasts renowned artists and shows and can pick up some local artwork at the storefront shops.
Music is in large supply, too, from the world-renowned Struthers Library Theatre to the live music provided by local restaurants on the city streets.
Culture is many things to many people.
Whatever your definition of culture is, it is here.
