It's Very "Cleveland Heights"
A snapshot of the bike rack at the entrance to the Cain Park Arts Festival in Cleveland Heights, last Friday through Sunday. WCLV broadcasts from the festival every year, but this year there seemed to be many more bikes out front. I noted this to a friend who replied knowingly, "That's very 'Cleveland Heights.'"
In my nine years of remotes at WCLV, Cain Park has always been one of my favorites because it's among the best-organized events. On Saturday, July 10, we had hot, dry and breezy weather. Many of you took us up on our offer of free WCLV "personal air conditioners," old-fashioned paddle fans, at the 104.9 broadcast booth.
The staff at Cain Park line up artist interviews for us. We always ask for samples so we can describe the art for you on the radio. During my afternoon shift, I chatted with a Pennsylvania man who carves spoons out of cherry wood, a Cleveland Heights photographer who loves shooting in black and white, and a couple of local brothers, a woodworker and a ceramacist, whose starkly different styles suggest yin and yang.
