March 1^st found 35 Cleveland Museum of Art members attending a very different art tour; this time in a hospital – The Cleveland Clinic. The 4,000 objects in the collection are contemporary in nature. The works were chosen to bring together themes of art, science, and technology. The result is an environment where patients, families and staff live and work in an exhibition space – the Miller Family Pavilion and Glickman Tower.

More than 150 librarians, educators, friends and supporters gathered on Dec. 1, 2010 at the Cleveland Botanical Garden to celebrate a unique educational partnership among the Ingalls Library of the Cleveland Museum of Art, the School of Library and Information Science at Kent State University and the libraries of 18 other educational, medical and cultural institutions in the University Circle area of Cleveland.

Every minute of every day, someone needs blood. That blood can only come from a volunteer donor—a person like you who makes the choice to donate. Your single donation could potentially save three lives.

Those of us who love the arts know the power they have to enhance our communities and daily lives. That’s why we choose to spend our free time in museum galleries, music halls, and theatres.
