Prior to the pandemic, the event was held in Bluffton for 48 years, making it one of the longest running art festivals in Ohio.
From 6:00-7:00 p.m. on May 18, Bluffton Middle School will host the annual Night at the Museum featuring exhibits by grades 6, 7 and 8.
The community is invited to experience this "living museum" where students present their research on countries (6th grade), historical figures (7th grade),
and careers (8th grade).
Some students dress up as historical figures, others as workers in different professions. Students create poster presentations on their topics and are prepared to introduce visitors to their research.
