Northwest Ohio Launches “Time Travelers Passport” to Celebrate America’s 250th Birthday

Northwest Ohio’s historic sites are joining forces to celebrate America’s 250th birthday with a brand-new event inviting residents and visitors to step back in time. Time Travelers Passport will take place July 1-15, 2026, offering a rare opportunity to explore the region’s most treasured museums, landmarks, and heritage sites.

Time Travelers Passport brings together 12 venues across Northwest Ohio — each offering special programs, tours, or exhibits.

Participants can pick up a Time Travelers Passport at any participating venue or download it from the website www.timetravelerspassport.org. As participants visit each site, they’ll collect stamps in their passport. Completed passports can be turned in for a commemorative coin

We are encouraging participants to download their passport now and coordinate their calendars with the dates and times the venues will be open during the 15 day passport adventure.

Time Travelers Passport is sponsored by www.holytoledohistory.com and Toledo Public Schools
