PlayhouseSquare 2017-2018 Broadway Series | The BIG Event: The PlayhouseSquare 2017-2018 KeyBank Broadway Series Launch Party was an evening of fun and anticipation as each show of the new season was announced!

Hot in Cleveland: Brite Winter 2017 | Mother Nature did not deliver the normal sub-freezing temperatures that we have come to expect at Brite Winter. This year, we had record high temperatures across the area. Congratulations to the Brite Winter leadership on their eighth successful year!

PechaKucha Akron Volume 6 | PechaKucha Akron had another huge and very successful event that took place at the Akron Urban League. When we arrived, we were not surprised to see 415 attendees, since we knew that PechaKucha Akron is a must-attend event in Akron.

Think & Drink with the Extinct: Biomimicry! | We did not know that the very first Think & Drink with the Extinct that we would attend with our brand-new membership would feature the University of Akron Biomimicry Fellowship Ph.D. candidates we had already written about in our blog twice!

Ice Fest and Free MLK Day | 2017 North Coast Harbor Ice Fest and free Martin Luther King, Jr., Day at Science Center and Rock Hall. Not only did we appreciate the fun day, but we also want to thank North Coast Harbor for choosing our photos as winners in their 2017 Social Media Photo Contest. 

Hidden Figures | The Cleveland Public Library & NASA Glenn Hidden Figures event was an illuminating discussion. It was interesting to hear personal stories about the contributions of women of color working at NASA.

#NewYearsEve & #NewYearsDay #Thanks! | It was a good year for us. We have many people to thank for all the activities and events that we attended in 2016. This blog post includes our year-end thank-yous. We have created this blog post to remind us of the fun we had this year, and to show our appreciation.

TechPint Winter 2016 | As my way of thanking the TechPint organizers for their great event at the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland -- I really had a great time connecting with many people there -- I have created this blog post, which captures resources from the evening. 

Annual Holiday CircleFest 2016 | We had 360 Degrees of Holiday Fun at University Circle's 23rd Annual Holiday CircleFest, and wanted to share our photos of the day to thank all the sponsoring organizations. One of the great things about the day is the people who work at the sponsoring organizations.

@Flashstarts Demo Day 2016 - #FSDDay | I was very impressed with the Flashstarts 2016 Accelerator Class. At the Flashstarts Demo Day, the startup founders made their presentations. I also truly enjoyed meeting other new people and reconnecting to the people I knew who attended this event at The City Club.

PechaKucha Talk by Stuart O. Smith, Jr. | Although Julie and I have written blog posts about PechaKucha Night Cleveland, I had never done a PechaKucha talk myself. I was extremely honored to be invited to speak at a special, first-time-ever PechaKucha Night Cleveland Past Presenters Happy Hour!

Cleveland Holidazzle & Winterfest 2016 | We want to thank PlayhouseSquare Cleveland Play House for Holidazzle, and Downtown Cleveland Alliance, Cleveland Public Library, and Cleveland Public Square for Cleveland Winterfest 2016. We also appreciate the Cleveland Foundation's support of these institutions.
