Little Cities of Black Diamonds
A Day-Long History Festival
Little Cities of Black Diamonds Day is an annual festival celebrating the rich history of the Little Cities region in Southeast Ohio–a region comprising over 100 villages and ghost towns in Perry, Hocking, Morgan and Athens counties.
For the first time ever, this year’s Little Cities Day will take place in Corning, at the Corning Civic Center (former high school). The event will feature folk music, exhibits, food, vendors and talks by visiting historians about the important historic events that took place in the Little Cities of Black Diamonds region.
