SUMMARY:Cursed! The Power of Magic in the Ancient World
DESCRIPTION:From love charms to curse tablets\, uncover the spellbinding ways ancient cultures tried to bend the world to their will. \nFor millennia\, people across Mesopotamia\, Egypt\, Greece\, and Rome turned to magic for protection\, for healing\, to curse their enemies\, and to seek favor from powers beyond the human realm. Ancient magic was woven into daily life and ritual practice—sometimes accepted and sometimes feared. Cursed! invites visitors to step into an exciting world of spells\, amulets\, and protective figures dating from 2000 BCE to 300 CE. \nThis exhibition brings exceptional works in a variety of materials to Toledo\, including intricately carved ivory wands\, brilliant gems\, rare magical papyri\, and lead curse tablets from the Louvre\, the British Museum\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, and other institutions. These objects reveal a shared human desire: to influence the unseen forces shaping life and death. \nGet your tickets now \nTicket Ranges:\nUnless otherwise noted\, ticket categories are defined as follows: \n• Ages 0–4: Free\, no ticket required\n• Ages 5–17: Child ticket\n• Ages 18 and up: Adult ticket \nThese age ranges apply to events and exhibition tickets only.

SUMMARY:The Biggest Week in American Birding
DESCRIPTION:The Biggest Week in American Birding is back from May 8-17\, 2026! \nLocation: Northwest OhioDuration: 10-Day Festival \nThe Biggest Week in American Birding is a 10-day festival in northwest Ohio where visitors immerse themselves in the spectacular spring songbird migration. Recognized as one of the top birding events in North America\, the festival offers unforgettable experiences for both beginning and seasoned birders. \nFestival Highlights\nGuests can participate in: \n\nBird identification workshops\nGuided birding hikes and walks\nBeginning birder outings\nBirding by kayak\, canoe\, and boat\nField trips to see American Woodcock\nBirding walks at Magee Marsh\nKeynote presentations\nA Birder’s Marketplace\nEvening socials and networking events\n\nPlease note: Festival events sell out early each year. Visit biggestweekinamericanbirding.com for a full list of events open to the public. \nWarblers… The Stars of the Show\nEach spring\, northwest Ohio becomes a birding epicenter as flocks of songbirds and waterfowl arrive during migration. The true highlight for many visitors is the small but mighty warbler\, weighing less than half an ounce. \nBirders from across the country gather along the famous boardwalk at Magee Marsh\, binoculars and cameras in hand\, hoping to spot that one elusive warbler still missing from their life list. Seeing these colorful songbirds at eye level is a rare and unforgettable experience. \nWhy Northwest Ohio Is a Birding Mecca\nAccording to the Black Swamp Observatory\, northwest Ohio is one of the best places in North America to witness spring migration. Lake Erie acts as a natural barrier\, causing migrating birds to gather along the southern shoreline to rest and refuel before crossing the water. \nBecause trees are just beginning to bud during peak migration\, visibility is exceptional. Birders may observe up to 20 species of warblers\, along with thrushes\, vireos\, flycatchers\, orioles\, eagles\, and shorebirds. \nWhether you are new to birding or a lifelong enthusiast\, The Biggest Week in American Birding offers a world-class wildlife experience right here in northwest Ohio. \nYou can learn more about The Biggest Week in American Birding in our blog!
