Summer Solstice Party at the Cleveland Museum of Art
Summer Solstice is a great place to meet likeminded Clevelanders that care about the city and the arts. There is something magical about being in the museum at night. It has everything to do with the authenticity of the museum that David Franklin spoke about at TEDxCLE this year. The art and people mingle, creating experiences unlike anything you can imagine.

Dinner With Strangers
When friend and fellow Clevelandophile Danielle Deboe was drafting her speech for TEDxCLE she kept going back to the idea that one of the most powerful things that one can do to change a city is to bring lots of passionate creative types together. Not for any defined “cause,” but simply to meet + see what comes of it. Danielle is a great connector who, through her store Room Service in the Gordon Square Arts District and other avenues seems to meet some of Cleveland’s best and brightest creative thinkers.

TEDxCLE: Ideas worth spreading
TED has granted approval for Hallie Bram and me to host the TEDxCLE event. If you aren’t familiar with TED it is an annual event where some of the world’s leading “thinkers and doers” are invited to share what they are most passionate about. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design — three broad subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. Past speakers include Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon, Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono.
