If you haven't come down to Coventry to see the #insideoutcle public art display - get down there and check it out! #LoveForCov🚨#Insideoutcle Artist Feature🚨 Candace Cunard is a local photographer, who unveiled her piece “Primordial Mother” at #InsideOutCLE. The figure that Candace awakens in her creation is the “Divine Mother” based on the “Tree of Life.” This godly figure stands high above bd's Mongolian, showering Coventry Village with her divinity. The usage of golds and silvers, representing the alpha and omega, compliment not only the piece but the emotions behind her creativity. “Mother” is also seen wearing serpent earrings, signifying Kundalini rising. Lastly, a flower pouring out of “Mothers” mouth, showing an offering of life and love. Candace welcomes GOD to our home in all her glory. A must see!!

ARTFUL artists & supporters really showed up and shared their support of our Coventry PEACE project with Library Board members at last week’s meeting. We were moved to tears, and incredibly grateful. While an agreement has yet to be reached, there is movement and discussions are ongoing, all thanks to those who expressed their support. Please continue to let the Cleveland Heights - University Heights Library Board know that you are in support of both sides reaching a compromise that allows for the creation of a permanent arts, culture & services nonprofit hub. Educate your friends and neighbors about our special group of nonprofits and get them involved, too. If anyone has any questions, they can email info@coventrypeacecampus.org. You guys rock - THANK YOU!!
Coventry PEACE Campus
Last week a number of supporters of the Coventry PEACE Campus spoke out in support of our project at the monthly Heights Library board meeting. Here are some highlights. We are happy to announce there are glimmers of hope, but we're not there yet! Please let the Library Board know that you support the efforts of our member organizations in their goal of establishing a permanent arts, culture and services nonprofit hub in the Coventry PEACE building.
We miss our open studio nights and look forward to when we can host our next one.
Our friends at FutureHeights are hosting this live discussion right now! Join the conversation.

With each disappointing cancellation caused by the public health crisis, there often has been a creative reaction or solution, making it all feel a bit better. This is a good example."We were so sad we had to cancel the comics festival, but out of that disappointment came this really beautiful artwork," said Kate Atherton. "Now we have a creative piece that documents this time, and can be added to the Library's zine collection—a small, silver lining." The community's artists delivered, and the result is "Quarantine Zine, Volume 1," a collection of art and comics made by local visual artists during Ohio's shelter-in-place order.
