"Feeding Cleveland" Photography Contest

Deadline for submissions: Friday August 21, 2009

Feeding Cleveland

The Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs at Cleveland State University is conducting a yearlong series exploring how to build our future beyond the foreclosure crisis. The foreclosure crisis in Cuyahoga County did not happen overnight. Similarly, the strategies for moving our communities and residents “Beyond Foreclosure” will take time to evolve. Over the coming year, the Levin College Forum will focus on strategies, tactics and projects that are new, creative, environmentally sustainable and invigorating to the marketplace. Challenging times are not new to Cleveland, and on this issue, where no roadmap exists, we have an opportunity to create a new path to our future.

As part of this series we will be having a photo contest. This contest is open to all photographers living in Northeast Ohio. The theme is “Feeding Cleveland” and we are looking for images of the greater Cleveland area that convey the role that urban agriculture has played in feeding Cleveland in difficult and challenging economic times and provide visually ideas for what Cleveland may look like using local agriculture for the reuse of vacant and abandoned land in Cleveland.
