I was preparing myself for Biblewalk to be cheesy or preachy, but this place is actually really…read moreinteresting and neat. This is the only life-size wax museum in the state of Ohio, and it features more than 300 wax figures depicting around 100 scenes from the Christian Bible. The theme of this wax museum is nondenominational Christianity and the Bible, so you'll see many scenes from Bible stories, both Old Testament and New Testament, like Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, Jonah and the whale, Jesus speaking to the little children, the last supper, the crucifixion of Christ and all of the other heavy hitters. The stories are presented very earnestly. Each story has its own little scene, and you press a button and the lights come on for that scene, and a recorded voice reads that particular scene's passage from the Bible. There are pews in front of the scene, so you can sit and absorb what's going on. Each recording is about 5-7 minutes. As you can imagine, if you made your way from the beginning to the end and listened to each Bible story, you would be there all day. (The lady who works there said some people are there like five hours.) However, you can also just wander the museum and pick and choose which stories you want to hear. I am a cynical person, and this is really not the kind of place you want to take me without expecting me to say something about it. But I have nothing but good things to say about Biblewalk. There is something very warm and comforting about it. It's like the best of the Midwest: Just wide-eyed, open-armed optimism and hope. I was prepared to roll my eyes at the earnest of it all, but you kind of get wrapped up in all of the stories as you walk through the museum. It's hard not to appreciate the museum and the stories that mean so much to so many.

As you walk the path there are scenes that have the people and it lights up and gives you a description from the Bible. Good for all ages. You have about 5 different paths to choose from. So if you have young ones you can end after one tour if they get restless. Very nice workers and i was impressed with how well maintained and clean the place was. It is also MUCH larger than it looks from the outside.

If you pay $5 extra so that they can touch you, they WILL make sure you get your money's worth. Arrive before it opens to avoid that line because it can get pretty vicious.

She said "they need to clean up this place". I understand that would be a lot of weed wacking around each pole, but at least spray it. The weeds were as high as the posts.

It really needs some TLC too.

The art gallery is free and open to the public to browse and take in the art, and the classes that you can take here are varied and not super expensive. My family and I visited from out of town to tour the facility and peek into the gallery, but if I lived in the area, I would totally take advantage of the classes here. They offer glass blowing, ceramics, stained glass, oil painting, jewelry making, watercolor paining and lots more. The work space they have set up for classes is bright and airy, and there are lots of materials everywhere in the organized space. They have kilns and ovens for creating pottery and glass pieces, and the whole area is just super conducive to creativity. They have rotating exhibits that feature local and not-so-local artists, in a gallery that with everything from paintings to sculptures. It's a great space to just wander around and get inspired.
