About Gahanna

Gahanna was founded along the Big Walnut Creek in 1849. Gahanna is derived from a Native American word for three creeks joining into one. The village is committed to foster a climate of “community” that allows businesses and residents to work together to improve the quality of life in the area.

Gahanna offers an eclectic mix of galleries, stores and boutiques, filled with exceptional treasures, offering an experience like no other. Attend award winning events, experience the unique Creekside shopping and dining district, and one of the area’s hottest blues and jazz festivals in the summer.
