Wayne Center for the Arts names New FabLab After Seaman Family

Wayne Center for the Arts has named its new FabLab for Innovation and Creativity following the completion of a $2.6 million capital campaign that also funded a new arts park. The FabLab naming recognizes support from the Seaman Family Foundation and Seaman Corporation, according to a community announcement. The Seaman family made one of the campaign's final major gifts in collaboration with the Stanley C. Gault Philanthropic Fund at the Wayne County Community Foundation, which provided the capstone gift. The campaign paid for development of the FabLab and the Ralph R. and Grace B. Jones Arts Park. Both opened June 27. The new FabLab gives students and other community members space to explore glasswork, enameling, woodworking, welding, blacksmithing and other creative disciplines. "We are excited to partner with Wayne Center for the Arts to bring the Fablab to life,” says Kimberly Seaman, executive director of the Seaman Family Foundation. “Innovation begins with creative thinking and the Fablab will provide students opportunities to develop the problem-solving, design, and technical skills that fuel both artistic expression and workforce success. This investment supports the next generation of makers, innovators, and skilled professionals who will help our community thrive.” According to the announcement, the

80-bed recovery center closes at Massillon health hub after 8 months

MASSILLON – A drug and alcohol recovery center operated by Ohio Valley Physicians Health has closed after about nine months inside a revamped health hub. The 80-bed addiction recovery facility opened in February at the Massillon Community Health & Innovation Center , 870 Amherst Road NE, which is the former site of Affinity Medical Center. It shut its doors on Oct. 16 due to apparent medical reimbursement shortfalls. Chris Zimmerman, chief executive officer of Massillon Community Health, said he's working on "a viable replacement" to occupy the former recovery center's space, adding that the process has been encouraging. A phone message left with a representative from OVP on Oct. 28 was not immediately returned. The recovery center was expected to bring in dozens of long-term jobs to Massillon, said Jackie Rebman, director of inpatient behavioral health for OVP, told The Independent in late February. Between $500,000 and $1 million of renovations had been made in preparation for the two-floor, rehab center in early 2026. Biz moves: Massillon residents voice concerns about new data center near school Services offered at the facility included inpatient detox and care, medication for substance disorders; mental health treatment; group, couples and family therapy; overnight care
