Ingenuity at the Lake is Saturday!

Summer isn't complete without a lil' Ingenuity!

Blustery weather may soon be here, but that doesn't mean there isn't a bit more Art, Music, and Summer Fun still to be had! Ingenuity at the lake is this Saturday, September 25, 2-8pm in South Gordon Park (off East 72nd Street) & North Gordon Park. From Nature and Sustainability Exhibits to Technology to Hands on Arts and Crafts to a groovin' Lake Front Stage, there's a little something for everyone!

All about Ingenuity at the Lake . . .

Fun in the Sun with our Neighborhood Partners & More!

As we wrap up a season filled with challenges and hope, Ingenuity Cleveland is proud to offer a fun-filled day of programming to gather together and remind ourselves what it's all about: great times with friends old and new, conversations about community, and laughter in the late summer sun!

Ingenuity at the Lake is a culmination of our year-long neighborhood programming, activating our community through monthly Ignite! Neighbor Nights in Saint Clair Superior, and our series of Hip! Hooray! Popups with partners from the Cleveland Metroparks, Famicos Foundation, and the CHEERS initiative.

On our traditional IngenuityFest weekend, we're excited to continue expanding our neighborhood offerings with a family-focused, open-air event in Metroparks North Gordon and City of Cleveland South Gordon Parks. The site is near the 72nd Street Harbor and Lakefront Reservation, accessible from East 72nd Street and Gordon Park Blvd at the North end of Cleveland's Rockefeller Park and intersection of Saint Clair Superior and Glenville Neighborhoods.

The event is set up to emphasize the pathways and connections that bring residents to the Lakefront, so Lace up your walking shoes and plan on one of the routes below:

As part of its core focus, Ingenuity at the Lake will shed light on the Metroparks-led Cleveland Harbor Eastern Embayment Resilience Study (CHEERS), highlighting the natural and civic resources the study seeks to bolster, and activating a key CHEERS site along the lakefront next to East 72nd Street's Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve. Ingenuity will showcase additional partner planning projects including Bike Cleveland's Safe Routes to Parks initiative and an upcoming Famicos Foundation-led masterplan.

Plus, expect Lakefront Stage performances from Jammin' Local Bands, Youth Crafts and Activities, a Beer Garden provided in partnership with Goldhorn Brewery, Exhibits & more!

For updates and previews of performers, exhibits & more, join the Facebook event!

We'll also be posting some helpful hints about parking, sustainability, and what else to expect! (Plus, we'll remind you next week about all those details right here!)
