Looking for musicians for downtown Cleveland video
January 16, 2010 – 5:09 pm
I’m in the process of editing a video about living in downtown Cleveland that Ellen Evans, Julie Iselin and myself put together. The video needs some background music and I thought about just finding something online, but since it’s about Cleveland, I thought I’d try and find a Cleveland band that would be willing to let [...]
Storefront Window Displays Artwalk?
December 29, 2009 – 8:56 pm
As an expanded idea for doing the makeovers on the downtown windows, myself and a few other participants thought it would be a nice idea–once we have enough completed windows, to turn it into a unique kind of art walk in itself with a little card map plotting out the various locations.

Cleveland A Great Lakes Cruise Destination? Why Not?
November 29, 2009 – 4:01 pm
I have recently contacted The Port of Cleveland, The Visitors Bureau and the Great Lakes Cruise Company to get all these groups to entertain the idea of making Cleveland a stop on one of their cruises. The itineraries are fantastic, but surprisingly there is not a Cleveland stop. Maybe if more advocates wrote in support [...]

Storefront Window Display Makovers
October 22, 2009 – 3:34 pm
In an earlier blog, I wrote about creating better atmosphere with the empty downtown storefront scene with art. Well, currently, I would like to announce that there are several spots already finished and more in the works!
