After hearing about Focus for so many years, it is a blessing to visit the physical location. A great place to take your family and if you go during the week, have a great lunch in their fabulous restaurant. Their bookstore is phenomenal so plan to stay for hours! More

Not much to see here for children but we enjoyed the learning experience ourselves. It has a little theatre so you can see the history of focus unfold. Nice for adults..... More

I expected a little more than a pleasant visit; I got a big family venue with various rooms perfectly done to represent all of the radio imagery--from Whit's End's colorful soda shop, to the stage with TV camera, the information walls & photos, and the radio talent room complete with Narnia wardrobe that steps into a dark room with soundtrack!...
