This 4th of July weekend, add a little wonder to your celebration!

While you're enjoying the excitement of the All American Burger & BBQ Festival at Lock 3 on Friday, July 3rd, make your way across the street to Clayton Bailey’s World of Wonders—a one-of-a-kind destination filled with mechanical marvels, quirky creations, and unexpected surprises.

As we celebrate America 250, discover why Bailey’s imaginative legacy is featured on the America 250 Ohio Creativity Trail right here in Akron!

Explore, get inspired, and experience a world where creativity comes to life. Then keep the adventure going by checking out our many public art installations, including our murals at Lock 4 featured in the America 250 “Murals Across Ohio” program.

Come for the burgers and fireworks—stay for the wonders!
