GOSHEN IS ONE OF THE COOLEST TOWNS AROUND — HANDS DOWN. Goshen’s mix of small-town charm and arts, culture and recreation make it a northern Indiana gem. Locals can’t stop talking about how much they love their distinctive little city.

“Goshenites,” as they’re called, are bound to boast about their monthly First Fridays festivals with themed events every month. Some love to chat about the abundance of local art activities with Arts on the Millrace, six artist guilds, Hawks live-work studios or artisans at the Old Bag Factory.

Goshen foodies (and there are many!) may encourage you to sample some of the 50 locally owned eateries and breweries. On the right day, you might be sent to shop at the open-year-round Goshen Farmers Market.

If shopping is your bag, you’ll be encouraged to visit the many boutique retailers around town, the Old Bag Factory, Linway Plaza or the city’s lovingly-restored historic downtown.

Need to move a bit? There’s no shortage of exercise opportunities at the local parks. You can explore miles of walking and bike trails throughout Goshen as well as connections to other communities.

If you’re looking for live performances, a local will send you to enjoy a national touring act at the 120-seat Ignition Garage, 700-seat Goshen Theater, or 900-seat Goshen College Music Center.

As humble as Midwesterners tend to be, Goshen takes a great deal of pride in what it has to offer. There’s something to do all year!
