Good things come in pairs. Or, they should. Or, if you see something good, you should grab another one.
78th Street Studios is blowing up since Derek Hess was one of its first pioneers, and now he’s back. Just like that. Take one thing and turn it into another. That’s the theory behind the Cleveland Furniture Bank’s upcycing workshop at Southland. That’s kinda the theory behind Cleveland these days.
Bring together bicycles and art, and you’ve got two events: a public talk and a ride showcasing public art in the Heights. Remember the Spring Seed Swap last April? Now reap what’s been sown at the R/S Summer Harvest Fest. Get ready to fuse fire & water at Lorain’s new FireFish festival. A vegan diet and protein? They go together like Cocktails and Canvas, which consists of – you guessed it – drinking and painting. Koreans Jinjoo Cho, violin, and HyunSoo Kim, piano, close out Holden’s summer concert series.
Is summer over? If you’re headed back to school, CoolCleveland is looking for interns to help unite your vocation and avocation. You really can do both. —Thomas Mulready
