Yesterday, Tim and I participated in another insightful Meet the Bloggers interview with local architect and historic preservationist Bob Gaede.  For those of you who don’t know Bob he has built his national reputation as an architect right here in our midst.  Gaede Serne Architects, Inc. will celebrate their fiftieth year in the profession on July 1, 2006. The podcast will be up soon on the MTB website and it will be worth a listen.  Bob related his beginnings here in Cleveland, hiis WWII experience in England as a meteorolgist, and the founding of the Cleveland Restoration Society, originally known as the Downtown Restoration Society.

This has become a rather long lead-in to the reason for my post,  Bob’s daughter Gretchen is one of the promoters of Bravo on the Avenue.  The event will be held at Tower City this Saturday, March 25th from 5-9 p.m. Lake Erie Artists are presenting this Fine Arts festival for the benefit of Circle of Friends–Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital.  There will be free food, live music, art sale, raffles, and the first drink is on the house.  If you order tickets before Saturday, the price is $20, at the door, $25.  The phone number to call for tickets is 216-664-9920.

Tim and I plan on attending the event, and we hope to see many of you there.
