contribute items. It was created to coincide with Time Capsules, a related exhibit of art by Terry
Klausman, Bret Hines, and Gwen Waight. The exhibit was installed at Summit ArtSpace during the
months of February and March 2015.
The capsule was closed on April 13, 2015 at a ceremony at the Akron-Summit County Public Library
