The latest program on dinosaurs even held the attention & opened up the imaginations of the many young children whose parents had brought them to see it. Mr. Derewicki, the director, was very informed, & thorough. He was patient & engaging while pointing out all the aspects. He highlighted many the constellations we could see in our part of the sky here in town. (Something if time allows, he always tries to do at the end of each of the presentations.) Coshocton is beyond blessed to have this facility in their city! The shows are at the CHS High School, & ALWAYS FREE but DO require a reservation. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I can describe my first impression in one word: welcomed. The lady at the front desk greeted us…read morewarmly, walked us through the nine minute introductory video, the three levels of artifacts, and how to get the most out of our visit. The museum is full of beautifully curated, cordoned-off room displays: a kitchen and dining area, a cheese-making room, wood-working room, print shop, iron-working room, and even a fire station equipment room. Press a button, and you are instantly immersed in an audio explanation while overhead lights highlight each piece. It's a clever, engaging way to learn. One of my favorite spaces was the music room complete with Al Ho. There were also glass cabinets, showcasing clothing, worn by Sugarcreek residence over the years, a thoughtful touch that brings local history to life. I also learned how deeply Sugarcreek is tied to brick making, thanks to its rich clay and shale deposits. The first plant, the Finzer Brothers Clay Company, was eventually acquired by The Belden Brick Company in 1946. It's a fascinating part of the town's story. We had a great time, exploring all three levels and left with a real appreciation for the care and pride that went into this museum.

It was not crowded downtown Sugarcreek just yet, but it was about to be. I was welcomed by the friendliest staff who briefly explained the lay out and I was on my way. Lots of cool antiques and history of Sugarcreek and a lot about both the Swiss and Amish heritage of the area. It is an old building with creaking floors (which adds to the charm!) so when you are downstairs you can hear the people walking above you. There is a very small gift shop up front and I didn't buy anything, but there were a few cute souvenir trinkets. I can't wait to come back and bring my son.

The Ohio Swiss Festival (and now Wine and Cheese "party") is a fun distraction from the knowledge…read morethat winter in Ohio is around the corner. Depending on the weather patterns, it can be chilly and rainy or, as it was this past weekend, warm and sunny. It's held the last Friday and Saturday in September and amounts to a parade, row of food vendors, a tent or building where you can buy locally made cheeses, local shops in the village of Sugarcreek open for browsing (which can be done any day), Swiss competitions (steinstossen, etc), music from local oompah bands and loads of people watching. This year was the first where I've seen some of the local wineries combined with the cheese vendors to create a very cool small scale wine tasting. It's not a full day's worth of activities, but given the location, with the drive, some local shopping, and dinner, you're doing the whole day. Don't miss out on getting some cheese. The swiss is to die for. Also consider taking a walk through Andreas furniture store. Finally, if you're bored with the festival, continue on the way down OH-39 and follow the signs to Berlin. There are loads of Amish shops and restaurants there. The countryside is quite scenic too.

The lone staffer was extremely friendly, and when we asked about a particular display, she checked and got back to us with detailed information. There are three permanent displays, American Indian, Pioneer Ohio and Oriental. Apparently the majority of the collection was a bequest by the local Johnson brothers and consisted of over 14,000 items. there were also two additional displays, a WWI traveling display and a room filled with local beer advertising memorabilia. Really appreciated the identifying signs and additional information which put the exhibits in context. Lots to see and learn here. Love these little museums...and this one was exceptional!

This was someone's retirement project. I watched a video on YouTube about a 105 year old man, his advice was to have a purpose in retirement.

On site, they have a charming shop with a variety of household decor items. They also have a variety of knives. The reason the space exists, though, is because of the intricate ivory carvings. The museum space itself is kind of small, but there are a variety of historical ships depicted. It is incredible how intricate he was able to get with something as delicate as ivory. So much detail and so many tiny and thin pieces. I never would have thought it was possible! I was curious about how the ivory was acquired since I know that is a hot topic, and it was all ethically sourced through either antiques or other legal means. The building is meticulous and the staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The museum was affordably priced (they even have a family rate of $25) and worth it if you are looking for something different and unique to experience.

We toured this museum during a recent trip to Ohio. To say it was a breathtaking experience is…read moresumming it up pretty succinctly. This man's grandfather Ernest Warther carved trains out of ebony and ivory. He passed this talent on to his grandson David. What Ernest did in trains, David has done in sailing vessels. The intricacy of the work, the overarching attention to detail and the pure artistic genius that goes into these carvings is nothing short of amazing. Each one will capture your attention for different reasons. Whether it is the bold lines, the intricate sailing vessels with all their masts and rope or the ornate scrimshaw on some of these pieces, the experience is amazing. There is no other collection like this one in the world. This is not your typical stuffy art museum. Every piece is fascinating and exciting. Everything is hand carved from legally and ethically sourced ivory. We were fortunate enough to arrive while the artist was working in his in house workshop. He came out and met all of us and showed us how he perfects all the myriad of tiny intricate ropes on his sailing vessels. Everything is carved. Nothing is manufactured elsewhere and added to the pieces. The gift shop was nice and well stocked. The whole place is clean, wheelchair accessible and pieces are well lit. Bathrooms were in good shape when we were there. This is a must stop destination if you are in the Sugarcreek area.
