Don’t just sit around screaming in frustration at the news on TV. Come to University Circle’s Uptown neighborhood to learn ways you can actually help make a difference.
The Cause & Effect Festival, outside the MOCA Cleveland building on Toby’s Plaza, is the official after party for the March for Science, but, despite the music from DJ Rachel Hunt and hands-on activities, it’s more than JUST a party. There will be representatives from a variety of activist and nonprofit groups there to share information on what they do and sign up volunteers.
They include groups like the ACLU, devoted to protecting constitutional rights; the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, ClevelandVOTES/Northeast Ohio Voter Advocates (which registers people to vote and promotes the urgency of voting); the Greater Cleveland Food Bank, the Refugee Response, which helps refugees in Cleveland adjust to their new surroundings, and many more. It’s free and open to all.
