MOMIX is returning to Cleveland to perform their newest magical multimedia piece Lunar Sea. The astoundingly creative mind of Moses Pendleton triumphs again with this exploration of the Lunar Sea and the other worldly creatures that inhabit.

Teacher and writer Erin Gruwell will be the guest of Cleveland Public Library’s Writers and Readers Series, Sunday, March 11, at 2:00 p.m. Gruwell has helped nearly 150 inner-city high school students who had been ignored or written off by the education system achieve their dream of going to college. Free and open to the public, the event will take place at the Main Library, Louis Stokes Wing Auditorium, E. 6th Street and Superior Avenue.

A recent college graduate, Gruwell landed her first job at Wilson High School in Long Beach, California, to discover many of her students had been written off by the education system, deemed "unteachable." As teenagers living in a racially divided urban community, they were hardened by exposure to gang violence, juvenile detention, and drugs. By fostering an educational philosophy valuing and promoting diversity, Gruwell transformed her students' lives.

How many people in NEO could have an uplifting, inspiring and positive documentary film made about them - how many people in NEO would come out looking all good... great? "Citizen" Ed Hauser is surely unique to Northeast Ohio, having stood up to many other "citizens", including NEO community and government "leadership", in a 9-year fight for what Ed felt was best for all in the community. The documentary "Citizen Hauser", about Ed's battle, which officially led to victory on March 02, 2007, has aired on public television in Northeast Ohio - an outstanding work by Blue Hole Productions - will be featured with other short films at the Cleveland Film Festival, as posted below.

Let's make this a victory party!

When discussions about East Cleveland redevelopment turned to local food and community gardening, the obvious expert to call was Maurice Small, "Action Hero" of City Fresh, New Agrarian Center. So I'm pleased to see Meet The Bloggers has scheduled a meet-up with Maurice for March 21.
