Review:
Yellow Springs is one of Ohio's most socially liberal small towns, known throughout the mid-2oth century as a major Midwestern center for civil rights activism and anti-war protests. The village was founded in 1825 after the model of Harmony, Indiana's utopian community and is known today as one of Ohio's most diverse, LGBT-friendly cities. Private university Antioch University is known for its unconventionally-structured degree programs, including work-study programs. Visitors can peruse the city's charming downtown district, which is home to a plethora of health-conscious restaurants, boutique stores, and sidewalk cafes.
Arts organizations populate the highly-cultural city, including the Yellow Springs Kids Playhouse, which presents a roster of award-winning summer theater programs each year. Map
