Friday Staycation Spot with Scott McDorman and Karen: Dayton Aviation Heritage & The Paul Laurence Dunbar House! ✈️📚
Who says you need to travel far to experience incredible history?
Today’s staycation stop is right here in Dayton!
Taking a step back in time to explore the home of legendary poet Paul Laurence Dunbar—the first African American writer to achieve national and international acclaim. Did you know he went to high school right here in Dayton with Orville Wright, and the Wright brothers even printed his first newspaper, The Dayton Tattler? It’s amazing to think about the incredible creative and inventive genius that came straight out of our city.
