Massillon Museum
Overview
Massillon Museum galleries are filled with innovative exhibitions—sometimes art, sometimes history. The Aultman Health Foundation gallery features award-winning, often in-house curated shows that change about five times a year. Second-floor galleries usually focus on the permanent collection—MassMu preserves more than 100,000 artifacts from which to draw inspiration! While a 1907-08 Massillon-manufactured Jewel automobile is nearly always on display, the photography gallery changes regularly, sometimes featuring contemporary artists, sometimes displaying a themed selection from the Museum's collection of 70,000 images. The Paul Brown Museum gallery and The Immel Circus—a 100-square-foot hand-carved miniature circus lot surrounded by historic circus posters, photographs, and costumes—are always on display. A visit to the Massillon Museum is always free!
