Cleveland Stories Opening Event - 2011.04.19


Cleveland Stories: True until proven otherwise

April 1 – 30, 2011 @ the Cleveland Institute of Art

Reinberger Galleries | Opening Event April 19, 6:30 - 9 p.m.

The Cleveland Stories exhibition features historic fragments, semi-fictional narratives, and outright fabrications about Cleveland. These stories provide the raw material for new ways of understanding and intervening in the city.

Cleveland Stories is a reminder that we write and (re)write the history of Cleveland every day. We invite you to be part of this work. Do you have a Cleveland Story to tell? You can add your drawings, text, or diorama to the show throughout the month of April. Then in the following months, we will be bringing some of these stories to life through installations in city neighborhoods. Visitwww.clevelandstorybook.com for updates and information on these projects.

Cleveland Stories is a joint program of the Kent State Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative, the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Cleveland State Center for Public History + Digital Humanities, andThe LIT. With support from the George Gund Foundation and Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
