Historic Walkable Arts University College Events Festivals

The unique Back Alley Gallery, located behind the historic opera house Craigmiles Hall about a half block east of Ocoee Street, is a public art display that's a must-see. At the center of Downtown, Johnston Park provides a shady area walk, relax on a bench, or attend an event.

Some of Downtown Cleveland's events include the Cleveland Apple Festival, the Main Street Cruise-In (a classic car show), the Downtown Dine Around, and the Downtown Farmer's Market. To learn more about the Ocoee region, visit the Museum Center at 5ive Points. The museum also hosts special events and exhibits, such as the Tennessee Artists Series and the History Happy Hour.
