About this event
Embark on the Cleveland Audio Tour: Arts, Science & Stories of University Circle
In the heart of Cleveland, a metal wolf guards a museum where art once sparked protest, while just blocks away, prehistoric bones whisper of survival against impossible odds.
This is no ordinary walk—this self-guided audio tour unlocks hidden gems, untold stories, and twisting alleyways where history lives and breathes. Discover the shadowy secrets and wild creativity most visitors never notice.
What explosive scandal nearly shut down a storied arts center before its finest hour? Who left cryptic sketches throughout the Museum of Contemporary Art’s earliest galleries, and what message did they carry? Did a single fossil in the Natural History Museum really rewrite what scientists believed about a long-extinct beast?
Move through Cleveland’s creative heart, tracing forgotten rebellions and underground mysteries. Each stop drags memory into daylight and turns every sidewalk into a stage for drama and reinvention.
Press play to unlock the city’s best-kept secrets—where one metal wolf still keeps watch.
