Art around town

Hey Cleveland, where does the week go? I blink and it's half way over...or only a few days left. Either way, I hope everyone is enjoying the film fest, wearing their winter clothes a few more times and all things cozy in Cleveland.

I have been saving these pics for the perfect day, and looks like this is the lucky Wednesday. How I love public art, especially those infamous pieces around town. Take a peak.

Church Ave.

Do you have a favorite piece of Cleveland Art?

    I agree, the original St. Malachi Church was dedicated in 1871 with its green cross illuminated to help guide sailors and boats on Lake Erie to shore. I doubt it was in neon-form then, but I sure do love it as well!

    I love seeing all the grafitti when I ride the Rapid. Even though it's not legal art, it's still lovely.

    I too love the grafitti. I just wish it was better. Know what I mean? Need more skilled taggers in the area.

    I also like the new RTA murals under the W. 117th RAPID bridge. They're pretty cheesy but at least they're colorful. Better than nothing.

    These murals and the Rapid's grafitti are things that distinguish a really cultural, creative city. Cleveland's got so many great museums and galleries, but artwork like this that's out in the open for everyone's enjoyment is a great cultural statement!
