Those who visit the Greater Cincinnati area for the 2009 USITT Annual Conference will find a wide range of museums which provide valuable resources on subjects ranging from local cultural and natural history to the fine arts.
There are museums dedicated to contemporary arts, baseball, horticulture, religion, American commercial signage, history of police and fire departments, and historic homes and sites of ancient civilizations. Clearly, Cincinnati provides educational and entertaining experiences for all ages.
The links to the web sites of many of these museums are listed below to show what Cincinnati has to offer. It also will make it easier to plan staying a day or two longer to take advantage of these fine resources before or after the USITT 2009 Annual Conference.
