Commercial Travel on the Cuyahoga: Past and Present
Description
The purpose of this exhibit is to pose questions for students and to provide answers about how humans interacted with their environment to provide commercial transportation on the Ohio and Erie Canal, the Cuyahoga River, and Lake Erie.
The exhibit will discuss how geographic and environmental factors influenced human interaction on the river in two eras -- the early 19th century and the late 20th century.
The exhibit will also create connections between Great Lakes transportation and folk music.
