Calling all history buffs to College Plaza — Visit the World War History and Art Museum Upon its opening on May 27, 2011, the World War History and Art Museum had about 300 paintings and drawings on display created by World War I soldiers. That display is just one of many facets contributing to the allure of Alliance’s own war museum.            The collection, which is housed in East State Street’s College Plaza, is dedicated to preserving artifacts, relics and art from World War I and II. On display, along with veterans’ original art, are soldiers’ uniforms, newspaper archives, a display honoring the legacy of local veterans, war-era toy soldiers, an exhibit featuring women in the war, and photographs.            The museum is located at 1300 E. State St. in Alliance, within the College Plaza commercial strip. It can be reached by phone at 330-829-3911. Hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and closed on Sunday and Monday. The facility is closed on New Year’s, July 4, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for students and free for children 6 and under. Group tours are available by appointment.
