4Learn More!	The Mahoning River flows through the rolling land that lies between the southern shores of Lake Erie and the banks of the Ohio River. The land is fertile, well-watered, and rich in resources. People have been attracted to the valley for thousands of years. As you move through the centuries of "The Valley Experience" you will see how people along this river have lived, produced and consumed, worked and whiled away their time, fought and gotten along, and passed into memory. Experience with them now their daily lives, their work, their successes and failures, as you move among what they have left to us.

Mahoning Valley residents heard the first intermittent sounds of local radio programming in the 1920s. Since then, the broadcast landscape has advanced beyond recognition from those first humming transmissions. In this exhibit, explore more than eighty years of the Mahoning Valley on air.
