Season 15 Episode 35 | 28m 03s

We travel to an Ohio town that discovered artistic treasures in the fertile ground beneath their feet. Also, Berea is known as the practice home of the Cleveland Browns, but it wasn't sports that built this city: try sedimentary rock. And we introduce you to two artists transforming the concrete jungle of one town through art.
