Part 8 – Take an Ada art walk 

Summer series focusing on The Remington Walk on the ONU campus
Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, August 23, 2020

MORE PHOTOS OF THIS WORK
AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STORY -

Summer is a great time to explore the art spread across the Ada community – especially for viewers unable to visit art galleries elsewhere in Ohio.

As a weekly series, The Icon will feature the art located on The Remington Walk on the Ohio Northern University campus. For some viewers, this series is familiar. For others, it may be a first-time experience. 

Either way, it’s an opportunity to take a walk and view some art that is uniquely Ada. The Walk is spread through campus and may be viewed by following the ONU walking path, beginning near Affinity Village, west of The Freed Center.
