Cedar Valley Settlers Celebration and Music Festival | Events

Ever wonder how people lived without cell phones, televisions and Facebook? Experience how life was for early settlers in Ohio at the free "Cedar Valley Settlers Celebration & Music Festival" on Sunday, September 16 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Frostville Museum in Rocky River Reservation.

Visitors can wander the grounds of Frostville Museum and enjoy old-fashioned crafts, games and hands-on activities. Learn to weave a rug and make a candle, or write with a quill pen, just as our forefathers did! See how wood was cut by using the two-man saw and much more!

They can also taste the food of pioneer days including creamy, fresh-churned butter; slow-cooked, tart apple butter; fresh-pressed cider, and more!

And, characters in pioneer costumes and storytellers will tell tales of days gone by. A pioneer excursion camp is also a part of the festivities.

A fusion of Americana, country, and bluegrass music will be heard throughout the day by some of the area's top musicians. Don't miss this year's nationally-known act, Valerie Smith at 3:30 p.m.!

Frostville Museum is located off Cedar Point Road in Rocky River Reservation, between Valley Parkway and Columbia Road/Route 252 in North Olmsted - just off the I-480/Clague Road exit (westbound) and I-480/Columbia Road exit (eastbound).

Parking is available at Frostville Museum, Little Cedar Point Picnic Area, Rocky River Nature Center, and Lagoon Picnic Area. Visitors are encouraged to bike over from the Lagoon Picnic Area.
