Heights Heritage Home and Garden Tour
The 32nd annual Heights Heritage Home and Garden Tour will reveal the stories behind some of the city's most interesting residences.

The self-guided tour will be held on Sept. 21, from noon until 6 p.m. It is sponsored by the Heights Community Congress, a nonprofit organization dedicated to social justice, fair housing and building community.

This year's theme is “Back to the Future.” Six homes and three gardens are featured, along with the newly renovated Church of the Savior at 2537 Lee Road. Each stop is an example of the rich architectual diversity found in Cleveland Heights.

Participants must purchase a ticket to learn the tour locations. Each participant gets a souvenir book that includes a map, a description of each site, as well as information on its history. Souvenir books are also available at every stop.

Refreshments will be served at the Church of the Savior from 2 - 5pm. Stop by the FutureHeights booth and say hello!

Tickets for the tour are $20 each, and can be bought at various locations throughout northeast Ohio.

Tickets for the tour and the preview party can also be purchased online at www.heightscongress.org.

3:00 PM
Bread & Puppet Theater at Coventry P.E.A.C.E Park
The Bread & Puppet Theater is one of the oldest non-profit, self-supporting theatrical companies in the U.S. The theater has been enacting its radical utopian vision in cardboard and cloth for over forty years, from the spectacle of its larger-than-life puppets at Vietnam War protests in New York City to the pageantry of its long-running (over 25 years) annual event, “Our Domestic Resurrection Circus” in Glover, Vermont. The latter event regularly attracted audiences in the tens of thousands up to the late 990’s. Author and NPR commentator Andrei Codrescu has praised “the genius of Peter Schumann [artistic director], the prodigious puppet-God,” writing “the Bread & Puppet Theater has been so long a part of America's conscious struggle for our better selves, that it has become, paradoxically, a fixture of our subconscious.”

Bread and Puppet is coming to the P.E.A.C.E Park in Cleveland Heights' Coventry Village. Join us for the September 21st performance at 3pm .

The performance will be "The Sourdough Philosophy Circus", a story about the need for human fermentation. Human fermentation concerns those parts of the human body which are not governed by the government, like the guts and the gutsy parts of the brain. This is also applies to dancing zebras and turkeys and free range cows. The show is run by a bunch of cooks, specialists in cooking the various stews and pancakes of our everyday first world existence. Additional commentary is provided by the Rotten Idea Theater Company. Music is provided by the Sourdough Philosophy Brass Band

Location:
Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Park, corner of Coventry Road and Euclid Heights Boulevard
