Transformation
Lake Erie Ink: a writing space for youth has been working for 10 years to build a creative youth community. This summer, we came up with a way to inspire the community using a common theme. As summer changed over to fall, we wanted to bring people together again. This time, we reflected on the ever-changing world we live in with our new theme: Transformations.
The pictures are nice, but it’s even better in person. We displayed all submissions at a Coventry storefront in Cleveland Heights. Go check it out now at 1812 Coventry Rd, Cleveland Heights, OH 44118.
Thank you to Mallory Phillips and the Coventry SID, who helped us secure the storefront and for supporting this community public art project. Thank you to Suzanne at Macs Backs who helped inspire those she knew to submit. And most of all, thank you to the over 40 of you who mailed, emailed or dropped off your submissions to us! They will be on view through December and then we will publish all in an anthology. All writers and artists will receive one copy free of charge. Other anthologies will be for a donation of $5.00.
If you want to learn more about this project or how to receive your copy of an anthology, email us at eli@lakeerieink.org. You can also check out our FB page and website for upcoming events and to learn more about what we do.
