Special Preview Event | Streetcar Level of the Detroit-Superior Bridge
June 19th, 2019 from 8-11pm
Kent State’s Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative invites you to experience two immersive lighting installations by Squidsoup, a UK-based arts group. These installations are made possible thanks to the generous support of the Cleveland Foundation’s Creative Fusion program, Waterways to Waterways edition.
Please join us on June 19 to be among the first to see Squidsoup’s installations, entitled Ascendance and Cuyahoga Flow. Additionally, Cleveland's Praxis Fiber Workshop will be hanging three indigo-dyed banners from the bridge, produced through a series of community dye workshops.
The preview event is free, but reservations are required. All visitors to the bridge should wear flat shoes. You’ll need to bring a legal form of ID and sign a waiver to enter the streetcar level of the bridge. Entry for the June 19 event is on the east (Downtown) side on W Superior Avenue, near the Settler's Landing stop on the RTA Waterfront Line (see map).
The Squidsoup installations and Praxis indigo banners are part of Cuyahoga50, a large-scale celebration of the Cuyahoga River and its regeneration in the 50 years since the last river fire in 1969. For a full schedule of events for the Cuyahoga50 celebration, please click here.
