Walks Around Akron - Rediscovering a City in Transition
Writer Russ Musarra and illustrator Chuck Ayers
Thursday, June 5, 2008
The weather is finally nice enough to draw Ohioans to their parks and trails and streets for leisurely walks. For the past 21 years, people in Akron have had the advantage of a good walk, illustrated. Newspaper writer Russ Musarra and illustrator Chuck Ayers started exploring Northeast Ohio on foot for the readers of the Beacon Journal. Since 2000, Akron City Magazine has printed their essays and art work . And about three dozen of their stories have been reprinted in a book called Walks Around Akron
