One thing leads to another.
You can start something rolling, and before you know it, everyone’s moving forward.
A successful Akron band spawns a new solo career.  A small town dies, but a Cleveland photographer is there to record the decay. The status quo is betting that young people won’t vote in this election. So why don’t you prove them wrong. In the meantime, let’s all stay safe together.
Be a part of the solution.

HEALTHY  How To Stay Safe

CoolCleveland was created to promote and support the cultural community in our region. And while social distancing will help reduce the spread of the coronavirus, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and The World Health Organization both tell us we can work together to reduce the impact of the coronavirus: wash your hands (and thumbs!) while singing Happy Birthday; sneeze into your elbow; load up on Zinc, Vitamin C and immune-boosting herbs; stay healthy with regular exercise and meditation.

We encourage CoolCleveland readers to explore our region mindfully. Reduce stress by avoiding social media and steering clear of large crowds. Watch for updated information from your favorite local small business and cultural group. For example, newly issued protocols adopted by Pink Lotus Yoga of Lakewood include: disinfecting public/common touch points regularly before, between, and after classes; offering antibacterial wipes, hand sanitizer gel and spray, and tissue stations throughout the studio; and temporarily removing guest mats from use (please bring your own). That’s how you stay safe.

VISUALS  Exploring a Dying Town

Cairo, Illinois was once a thriving town at the confluence of two rivers. It was also the ancestral home of Cleveland photographer Shari Wilkins’ family. For the last few years, she’s focused on recording the decay that followed 60s race riots and official neglect. In Displaced: Cairo, An American City at Oberlin’s FAVA Gallery, her photos share space with reflections on Cairo by four artists she’s connected with.  Sat 3/14
