But we didn’t stop there. Inspired by the understanding that City Club is as much a spirit as it is a place, we took that spirit on the road to Dinner & Dialogues at restaurants throughout the city, to Edgewater Park to discuss diversifying our parks, and to Playhouse Square to partner with the region’s libraries to create One Community Reads featuring Matthew Desmond’s devastatingly important book Evicted. We hosted Ride and Learns, commissioned a series of Freedom of Speech murals to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Elmer Brown’s original mural, and we even helped to launch City Club forums in an entirely new city with City Club of the Mahoning Valley becoming our first new City Club project.

PARTNER SPOTLIGHT One of our key partners in catalyzing the City Club of the Mahoning Valley is Youngstown State University. From their faculty and financial investment, to their public radio station and engaged student body, YSU’s partnership has helped to turn CCMV from an idea to a reality. 6 | THE CITY CLUB OF CLEVELAND WWW.CITYCLUB.ORG | 7 The first Tuesday of every month, we go global with Happy Dog Takes on the World, presented in partnership with Cleveland Council on World Affairs, Global Cleveland, IPM, and the Northeast Ohio Consortium on Middle East Studies.
