Lake Erie Ink engaged in quest for social justice: Station Hope & Tolerance Fair
Lake Erie Ink participated in both Station Hope and the Tolerance Fair in May. Our students performed at Station Hope, which was created in partnership with St. John’s Church and The Episcopal Diocese of Ohio, Friends of St. John’s Church, Restore Cleveland Hope and the Cozad Bates House, Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority, The City of Cleveland, Cleveland State University, and over 25 participating arts groups and individuals from the Northeast Ohio region.
Station Hope is a FREE, one-night-only multi-arts event that celebrates the triumphs of the Underground Railroad, the history of St. John’s Church and the contemporary struggles for freedom and justice. April 26, 2014 6:00pm-10:00pm, St. John’s Church (2600 Church Street in the Ohio City neighborhood of Cleveland). Learn more about Station Hope here.
On May 3rd, Lake Erie Ink joined over 100 local non-profits at the Tolerance Fair at the CSU Wolstein Center. The Tolerance Fair is an event that inspires people to find communities for belonging, creates passion that results in self worth, and promotes education to overcome ignorance: all components necessary for tolerance and acceptance of self and others.
