St. Ignatius of Antioch*

Both occur on Saturday, May 9th, 2009

AIA Cleveland**, the Institute of Classical Architecture and Classical America have begun compiling tours of recently closed Catholic churches in Cleveland and the surrounding area in order to celebrate much of the architecture before it is lost forever. This first tour is to mark the beginning of a series in which groups of visitors will be led (by Tim Barrett) will be exposed to and have time to capture some of the grand spaces and details. Participants of the tours are encouraged to bring cameras (video and still), sketchbooks, etc. AIA Cleveland hopes to stage an exhibition of the recordings.

In light of the pending closure of so many of the region's Roman
Catholic churches, tours of several of the most significant ones have
been scheduled. On May 9, the second tour begins at 10 am, at St.
James Cathedral, the second tour begins at 11:30 am at St. Ignatius of Antioch.
Future church tours will be announced as they are scheduled. The tours
are free of charge and Continuing Education Credits (1 HSW unit per
church) are available.


* The closure of St. Ignatius was recently rescinded due to community involvment and fundraising in saving their church.
** This event is not posted on AIA Cleveland's website but chances are it should still be happening

Can you describe yourself or your vision in 20 seconds? What if you had 20 slides worth 20 seconds each? Might be a little pressed?

Good. Now you understand the intrigue.
