ACA to offer a rare look at former Adrian Training School site

ADRIAN — The Adrian Center for the Arts will host “A Walk Through Adrian’s Past” on Friday, Sept. 13. 

This guided walking tour will take people back in time to when the Planewave Instruments campus was a correctional facility for girls run by the state of Michigan. Guests will see the tunnels that connect the buildings, go inside buildings never before open to the public, and hear the true story of one of the country’s most infamous female serial killers, who spent time at the training school. People will also hear from a former Adrian Training School teacher. 

Tours will be offered at 4 p.m., 5 p.m., 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. Tickets are $25 each.
