Thank you to our
May Museum Sponsor

This month, we're honored that the Januzzi Family at Januzzi's Footwear Solutions will be sponsoring free admission into our museum.
We'd like to thank Roland Januzzi, owner of Januzzi's Footwear Solutions as well as his family and longtime supporter of our organization, Carm Januzzi, who used to volunteer for our organization, for their continued support of our mission and for bringing our vision to life!
Januzzi’s Footwear Solutions is celebrating 100 years in business in 2026. With roots planted firmly in central Lorain, the business started as a modest shoe repair business in the cellar of the home of Enrico and Stella Januzzi near Central Park in Lorain. In 1948 the retail shoe business was started by Al “The Shoe Professor” Januzzi at 26th and Broadway in Lorain. Today, the business is operated in Amherst by third generation owners Roland and Connie Januzzi.
A regional destination widely known to help people stand, walk, and feel better, Januzzi’s Footwear Solutions is growing the therapeutic shoe fitting business by serving customers from Toledo to the Pennsylvania border and as far south as Columbus. Pictured are Roland and Connie Januzzi with Carmelene Januzzi (Mrs. Albert Januzzi) who, at age 96, is the most senior member of the Januzzi footwear family.

Thank you to Roland Januzzi and his family for their support! When we support one another, our whole community thrives.
