From the storied origins of Superman to Harvey Pekar's legend, our city's contributions to this art form cannot be ignored. Arts Collinwood is set to honor those contributions, alongside Cleveland's current vibrant comics scene with "CRUNCHY: Sugary Cartoon Art for Big Kids."

Miller Schneider Gallery Presents BOB PECK – ALCHEMY The work in this show is a chronicle of the experimental work done by Bob throughout his career from his earliest days working with graffiti as a kid to his gallery displayed pieces. Peck is a Cleveland native who got his start working with graffiti arts in the west side neighborhood where he grew up. As he matured, he also began doing more “traditional” painting. ALCHEMY will be on display in the Miller Schneider Gallery from June 22nd, through July 13th. 16008 Waterloo Rd.
Waterloo Studios- earth, wind & light: Images and Words by Pat Washington Pat Washington is a local photographer and poet who showcases the beauty of the world around her through her work. This is her first gallery show where she will display both poems and photographs. Inspiration for many of her poems is drawn from the photographs themselves proving that artistic mediums do not necessarily need to be mutually exclusive. An advocate of the Waterloo Arts District, she is excited to be a part of the growing local arts scene. Her show will be in Waterloo Studios Gallery from June 29th through July 20th. 15316 Waterloo Rd. (216) 383-8002
