RIDE THE TROLLEY!
The City of Akron's Trolley will provide free rides between several events all day long! Park at any one location and take a trip on the trolley to enjoy them all!
In the morning (from 10AM-1PM) ride the trolley and enjoy an Akron History Tour guided by Michael Cohill with additional stops at Don Drumm Studios & Gallery, Lock 3 Akron's Home Grown Saturday Mornings, and the University Park Art Fair at Grace Park (stop on Prospect Street).
In the afternoon (from 1PM - 6PM) ride the Green University Park Free Shuttle and reduce your carbon footprint. The Green University Park Shuttle makes three scheduled stops at the University Park Art Fair at Grace Park, Don Drumm Studios & Gallery, and the Northeastern Ohio Green Energy Expo at the Knight Center. Five "drive by" visits to sustainable living points of interest in University Park - including the Andrew Jackson House, Spicer Village and Dale Chihuly's polymer sculpture - are also included. Tour guides will be on board to educate and entertain. The Green University Park Free Shuttle is sponsored by the City of Akron, University Park Alliance and Green Energy Ohio.
