Ohio’s geology provided the opportunity for settlers to construct water-powered mills. The Great Miami River and its many tributaries offered pioneers a means to produce staples for 19th Century life. Other artifacts tied to yesterday’s mills entail the water wheel, millstones, and watercourses which were key elements of gristmills, watermills, and sawmills. Today, these local landmarks represent community pride and serve as perfect subjects for hospitality art and healthcare art.
