Creating a Downtown Destination Spot

In recent years, the Library has stepped up its involvement in downtown events and celebrations in recognition of its role as a downtown destination and impetus for the revitalization of the downtown area. Now, with a larger staff in place that is dedicated to programming, the Library is able to be a more noticeable participant. In 2013, for example, our involvement in the Winterfest celebration increased dramatically and included a large array of musical performances, model train displays, and live reindeer in our reading garden.

Plans are already in the works relative to our involvement in and support of the Gay Games that are coming to Cleveland.
