Breuer and Hough Bakeries

The most important thing civic-minded, planning oriented, culturally-concerned citizens may do June 8th is attend the Cleveland City Planning Commission meeting regarding Cuyahoga County seeking permission to demolish the Breuer - see posting on this here. After fighting the good fight there (to save the Breuer, or argue otherwise), while you are in a feisty planning state of mind, stop by the Hough Bakeries, in East Cleveland, for some open social hacking on what went down that morning and what we can do to make sure this region is planned better in the future, including with what we are working on in East Cleveland.

you on the spot -- just let us know in your reply what two-hour period

Sometimes a sliver of an image, a hint of fragrance, a word or a small gesture has the power to transcend time and space where intimate collections of buried imagination are stored.

Such is the work in Storage Space (Jun 22-Aug 3, 2007), the artists invest the art with pathways to real or imagined histories.

Yes, we will have a happy hour at the Inner Circle today, starting around 4 until 7 or so - with Edwin mixing in some tropical tunes to cool the day. Please stop by if you have time and learn the latest developments with Star Neighborhood Development, the Inner Circle, and in the neighborhood... we may have our WiFi hot sopt up by then, if I can figure everything out.. Hopefully, we'll have closed on our house by then, too, and we may welcome you to come by and check it out and offer renovation advice... we'll have an open-house whether we close or not - if you are thinking of moving any time soon you should check this out.

My wife and I are big fans of NEO artist Gina DeSantis - I started buying her functional ceramic pieces when she first showed at Buzz (we love her rice bowls designed with chopsticks in mind). When Buzz closed, we hunted Gina down to continue buying her work. So, when she announced Level Three Gallery it was such good news... be sure to check Level Three Gallery and Gina's work (above) out at their upcoming show, described below...

I received this today from the Ohio City Bicycle Co-op:

I'm doing an unprecedented thing for me, and sending this to everyone I
email (Sorry if you consider this "spam") because I think it's
important that folks get together on this -- especially after reading Al
Gore's Op-Ed in the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/01/opinion/01gore.html

Some of you are not in Cleveland, but look at this invitation anyway,
please, and if you're not, I think you can find an event near you by
clicking on the "find an event" at the top, by "event central"...
I feel strongly that we can all learn something from this kind of
event, so here's the boilerplate from Live Earth, and if I don't see you
(with your bicycle, I hope !) at Great Lakes Brewery on Saturday, I hope
you will attend an event near you if you can:

You've been invited to attend Audubon Party for the Planet. Go to
http://www.joinliveearth.org/page/event/detail/wxy#rsvp to RSVP.

I hope you'll do something fun and meaningful for the planet this
Saturday -- if not by attending a Live Earth party, then by riding your bike
somewhere!
