The Agricultural Center is a centerpiece of the long-range Expo 2050 vision DeWine launched in 2019. “Fairs are about really what’s best, and we always thought the Ohio State Fair should really show what is best in the state of Ohio,” he said. Celebrating Ohio AgricultureAfter DeWine, fair and industry leaders filled in what the new center and the broader Expo 2050 plan will mean for Ohio agriculture. Adam Heffron, general manager of the Ohio Expo Center and State Fair, called the new building “a place built to celebrate Ohio agriculture, past, present, the future and the people who make it strong.” “This building and this exhibit back here specifically is our opportunity to tell the story of Ohio agriculture,” Sharp said.
