Don’t hold back
Let loose this week and watch out for the Concert Truck that the Cleveland International Piano Competition is presenting all over town through the end of the month. Hang out on the street with the Lakewood Summer Meltdown, sing along at the Cleveland Irish Festival, and use your imagination at the US Air Guitar Nationals at the Beachland Ballroom.
Max out with pizza & jazz at the Botanical Garden, find yourself basking at Summer in the City at the Akron Bazaar, dig into books, bites and beats at Akron’s People’s Park, and preview the BorderLight Festival at a free outdoor City Club forum at Playhouse Square.
Go big and check out the CoolCleveland VIDEO interview of Cleveland’s new horror hosts Janet Decay and Grimm Gorri, AKA the Mummy and the Monkey. Get in on the open mic at Poetry Unplugged at City Goods, be a part of Wizardly Weekend in Kent, and definitely do the open air King Lear at parks & landmarks in six communities between now and the beginning of next month. That’s how you take it to the max.
