Live Performances and Art Exhibits

There’s no shortage of artistic talent here in our area. If you’re looking for a chance to witness the arts, you can find performances happening at The Renaissance Theatre, the Mansfield Playhouse, or the smaller and more intimate Theatre 166. If you’re interested in experiencing, creating, and appreciating art in its physical form, The Mansfield Art Center is a wonderful place to explore galleries and exhibits. Additionally, if you’d rather immerse yourself fully in the arts, there are plenty of options for hands-on experiences like artist workshops and open mic poetry nights.

Whether you’re a Shawshank Redemption fan looking to explore the 15 filming locations, a history buff interested in the happenings of the prison during its lifetime, or a lover of the paranormal looking to hunt ghosts in the cover of nightfall … the Ohio State Reformatory has something for everyone. It’s even the home of the famed summer 3-day tattoo and music festival, Inkcarceration.
