2008 Cleveland Design Competition Reception


A few details on this year's Cleveland Design Competition awards reception...

What: 2008 Cleveland Design Competition Awards Reception and Exhibition
Where: 78th Street Studios, 1300 West 78th Street, Cleveland
When: Thursday, December 18th at 6:00pm (Awards presentation will begin at 7pm)

Earlier today, local and national jurors reviewed 55 design entries from Cleveland and around the world and selected winning submissions for an intergenerational playspace along the West 65th Street Tunnel in the Detroit Shoreway Neighborhood. We are excited about the selected submissions - in all, there are many thoughtful and creative ideas for enhancing the bicycle path as it travels to Edgewater Park and in proposing the site as a place for children and adults alike to play.

Like last year, all submissions (55 entries this year) will be displayed for viewing between 6pm and 8pm or so. Light refreshments are being provided by a local restaurant, LUXE (www.luxecleveland.com) and the event is casual.

The exhibit space is in the 78th Street Studios (http://www.78streetstudios.com/) in a brick warehouse building (former American Greetings Creative Studios) on West 78th Street off of Lake Avenue. The 78th Street Studios website has helpful driving directions. Once on 78th Street, there will be sufficient lighting and wayfinding to find the exhibit entrance. Plenty of parking is available next to the entrance and there are only a few steps into the space.
