'Everybody has a connection to fabric': Traveling exhibit delivers a hard message with a soft medium

15. Mayo Civic Center/Civic Theatre You cannot miss the behemoth on your left. The structure is home to the Rochester Civic Theater and the Mayo Civic Center (and, farther down the way, Rochester Art Center). Here you can catch live music, plays, theater camps, and a range of other local events. (Not bad neighbors for the city’s newspaper, the Post Bulletin, to have just across the street.) The Civic Center was recently redone, so you might want to pop inside to check out the new digs. Q: Where can you find your favorite newspaper columnists and magazine employees? A: In the charming wood-paneled Rochester Magazine office in the Post Bulletin building! You are, hopefully, nearly back to where you started. You can get some more steps in by walking onto the city’s riverwalk, if you so desire, or maybe walking to a downtown eatery to refuel. Congratulations on completing "Rochester: Resilient. Relevant." (Trademark pending!) You’re now ready to dazzle your friends and family with your newfound trivia. And, of course, find your way around Rochester like never before.
