The story

Medina Ice Festival in Medina

The Medina Ice Festival brings professional ice carvers to Medina, Ohio's historic public square each winter, transforming the town's gazebo and storefronts into a display of sculpted ice art, alongside live carving demonstrations, warm food and drink vendors, and family activities.

Its historic-square setting and winter art format make it a useful seasonal row.
