We’re grateful for our relationship w/ the architecture + design from Young Projects + the creation of the “Transforming Table” designed by Marlee Barnes. While based in New York, she has roots in our Cleveland community. The table calls us together—we show up, we listen, we take each other in.

#savethedate Join Us on 6.23.25 for part of the day, the whole experience or drop-in.

After, take a moment to stop by the Neighbor Up gathering at Harvey Rice Library.
