Decorative Arts Center of Ohio

The Decorative Arts Center of Ohio is located in Lancaster, Ohio, just southeast of Columbus. The museum offers tours of the historic Reese-Peters House, art classes for all ages, public programs and three art exhibitions annually.

Reviewed By Laura_O_in_Ohio_USA - Lancaster, United States

The Decorative Arts Center of Ohio consists of two parts, the Reese-Peters House and the Wendel Center for Arts Education. This is a very popular public museum housed in a beautiful Federal-Greek Revival mansion originally built in 1835 and renovated in the late 1900's. It is located on Main Street in the center of town in what the locals call "Square 13", which is the original plat on which the city of Lancaster was built. The Reese-Peters House is dedicated to preserving the beautifully detailed and well-maintained architecture of the house and also an impressive collection of period items which they have on display. The Wendel Center for Art Education is housed in a very large, reconstructed carriage house. They provide art classes for everyone from beginners to serious art students. The Decorative Arts Center is a fascinating and authentic historical resource for visitors and a real diamond in the local community. I consider it an absolutely must-see for history buffs and an excellent way to spend the day. Plan to be there for at least one or two hours, because there is a lot there that you are going to want to see. Open 7 days a week with free admission and no reservation needed!

Ohio Glass Museum

Reviewed By MidwestKathM - Detroit, United States

This museum highlighting the glass industry in southeast Ohio is great! We saw so many beautiful pieces of glass and learned so much about the local glass companies, including Anchor Hocking (one of our faves), and how the town grew with the industry. And there is always a new temporary exhibition highlighting a new topic. We received a very informative tour from one of the volunteers. In spite of the constraints of visiting a museum in the time of COVID-19, the staff and volunteers made this visit without any problems. One door to enter, another door to exit. Plexiglass at the counter where you pay. Hand sanitizer available. And new kiosks with wonderful info about each exhibit. Unfortunately, during this time, they were offering glassblowing demonstration, but hopefully those will be back soon.

Skyview Cruise-in Theatre

Reviewed By Laura_O_in_Ohio_USA - Lancaster, United States

Built in 1948, "The Skyview", as the locals call it, is an actual, functioning drive-in theater. There are less than 400 of these drive-ins left in the United States. The owners have maintained the traditions of the original drive-ins, including the central concession stand serving up hot dogs, hamburgers, fries, and, of course, popcorn. I have to laugh every time they show those hilarious old commercials at intermission with the dancing, singing box of popcorn, sandwiches, and beverages inviting us to go to the snack bar. This drive-in has an 80-foot screen, and visitors have a choice of dialing up FM stereo or using the old metal car speakers from the 1940’s that hook onto your car window. On warm summer nights, some people spread out blankets on the ground in front of the screen. And don't forget as you enter the movie lot to "Please Dim Lights, Speed Limit 5 mph". For those of us who remember going with our dates to the drive-in, a visit here is a real dose of nostalgia. If you are travelling with kids, this is a rare opportunity to show them in person what a real movie drive-in was like. It's a real treat for everybody, young or old. Don't miss this chance to visit this drive-in theater before they all go extinct!

Party of 4 on a Sunday was a perfect fit. Many samples tried and a meat & cheese plate ordered. They have wine slushees! I would like to come back in warmer weather to sit outside but might be back to buy more bottles before then! Employees are friendly and pricing is moderate for a winery!
