1. Blue Water Majesty Museum
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 14 reviews
Imagine seeing an 18th century sailing ship, complete with deck nails and rigging, just as it must have appeared over 200 years ago. Now imagine this ship is only 4 feet long. This is the magic of the museum known as "Blue Water Majesty." All models are exact duplicates of their full grown sisters and are made from copies of the original blue prints.

The HOF was great. There’s plenty of staff to direct you around, great exhibits and displays. Everything flowed smoothly and things were nicely explained. Great to see the busts of the enshrined and the uniforms of so many great players. Close parking was a plus too. The Joe Namath interactive movie in the locker room with Coach Halas and Coach Lombardi was just awesome and really well made.

I went there last week with my friend. So much to see other than the cars. Very friendly staff, especially Char, she is so friendly and very knowledgeable about her cars,and Canton's history. She could truly write a book, and should.

What an amazing gem of a museum! Covid friendly, very spaced out art space that has plenty of moving, special exhibits, as well as an extensive collection of world class art. Well worth a stop, and you'll need about 2 hours. Go and enjoy this beautiful space!

This is a really cool place. The monument seems to be a popular place for locals to exercise with all the steps. We were the only people there to actually visit the final resting place of the former US President

I experienced the Joseph Saxton Gallery of Photography for the first time at yesterday's First Friday in the Canton Arts District. All I can is "wow" about this collection. In addition to the featured exhibit, there are a wide range of exhibits, including early 20th century and 19th century collections. The building is magnificent, too; a great example of how an old historic building can be renovated and repurposed.
