If you or your partner love art or museums, visit the Dayton Art Institute. It is located conveniently close to Sinclair, and is free to students with their student I.D. You can spend hours exploring different art and eras, while learning something new, and then after you’ll have enough money to grab a bite to eat with the many options on Brown Street.
- Hiking day
If you’re a nature lover, Dayton and the surrounding areas have great hiking trails and parks. In yellow springs you can explore John Bryan State Park, which offers hiking, canoeing and fishing, and is still fun in the winter, or you can visit Clifton Gorge Nature Preserve, which is a scenic route that provides views of waterfalls and a glacial canyon.
