Ohio prison hosts full symphony concert behind bars
LIMA, Ohio — Incarceration is intended to punish those who break the law by separating them from the rest of the world and the beauty it contains. On Sunday afternoon, however, some of that beauty broke through as the Lima Symphony Orchestra filled a state prison with the beauty and emotion that can only come through music.
Downtown Lima filled with live music and vendors for July's First Friday
LIMA, OH (WLIO) - Lima residents gathered downtown for a free night out. This month's First Friday featured a performance by the band Probable Cause. There were also several vendors selling things like handmade soaps or jewelry, pottery, and prints for sale from Art/Space Lima, and organizations like Johnny Appleseed Metro Parks and WOCAP Headstart talking to visitors about what they have to offer. The event gives the city something fun to do over the summer, and it helps small businesses by getting them some face-time with customers who may not have heard of them.
