“Sole of Akron” – A City Told Through a Sneaker

“The Sole of Akron: A Forgotten History Forum” is a unique experience that uses the anatomy of a sneaker as a lens to walk through our city’s legacy through truth, creativity, and power.

Together, we’ll walk through five key parts of a sneaker to uncover five deep truths about Akron:

  • Sole- Our Rubber Roots
  • Heel- Rise of Sneaker Culture
  • Tongue- The Voices That Still Speak
  • Toe- A Future Engineered by Youth
  • Laces- What Holds Us All Together
