| Life in Athens |
|
Athens, a college town known for its rustic and tranquil setting, offers a unique blend of culture and nature. Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Athens County provides nature lovers with some of the best hiking, camping, boating, and bicycling opportunities in southeastern Ohio. The region is filled with scenic lakes, waterfalls, caves, state parks, and rolling farmland, as well as villages and towns that are home to historic railroads, mines, and ceramic brick factories. Several annual festivals feature a variety of foods to sample, Native American dancing, chainsaw carving, and a state-wide guitar contest.
The presence of Ohio University — the first university in the Northwest Territory — creates a cultural hub in Athens and brings many plays, lectures, concerts, and art exhibits to the area. Along with the College of Fine Arts at Ohio University, Athens is home to several other art organizations and venues for exhibition. USA Today recently named Athens, Ohio one of the top ten arts communities in the United States.
Athens is home to a very active and diverse music scene as well, with nearly a dozen live-music venues in the historic downtown. The Dairy Barn Cultural Arts Center, built in 1914 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is a respected arts center, regionally, nationally, and internationally. The Dairy Barn also hosts monthly contradances, accompanied by one of the many local bands.
