The Midland Theatre is a theatre that was built in 1928 in the Newark Downtown Historic District of Newark, Ohio, United States. Following fifty years of success and renown, the theatre was damaged by a blizzard and closed for more than a decade. It was then purchased and underwent an extensive renovation. Since reopening in 2000, it has been used as a performance venue for live music and other performing arts events. The 1,200-seat theatre provides a multitude of opportunities to view performances by popular artists and participate in various events.

3 miles south of Cynthia, near (south/east) Newark, Ohio, off of SR 668. Flint Ridge is a restored prehistoric quarry pit with a museum that explains both the digging and shaping of flint. It is a site well worth the visit. There is a flint knap-in (teaching, exhibiting flint knapping, swap flint) every Labor Day week end. At the opposite end of the park there is a camping area that has a fossil swap the same week end.
