  • CMA Landscape Master Plan
    THE CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART LANDSCAPE MASTER PLAN DECEMBER 2018 LANDSCAPE MASTER PLAN The rehabilitation of the Cleveland Museum of Art’s grounds requires the creativity, collaboration, and commitment of many talents, with contributions from the design team, project stakeholders, and the grounds’ existing and intended users. Throughout the planning process, all have agreed, without question, that the Fine Arts Garden is at once a work of landscape art, a treasured Cleveland landmark, and an indispensable community asset. But the landscape is also a complex organism—one that requires the balance of public use with consistency and harmony of expression. We also understand that a successful modern public space must provide more than mere ceremonial or psychological benefits. To satisfy the CMA’s strategic planning goals and to fulfill the expectations of contemporary users, the museum grounds should also accommodate as varied a mix of activities as possible. We see our charge as remaining faithful to the spirit of the gardens’ original aesthetic intentions while simultaneously magnifying the rehabilitation, ecological health, activation, and accessibility of the grounds, together with critical comprehensive maintenance. This plan is intended to be both practical and aspirational, a great forward thrust for the benefit of all the people forever. 0' 50' 100' 200' 2 The Cleveland Museum of Art Landscape Master Plan 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS CMA Landscape Master Plan Committee Consultants William Griswold Director and President Sasaki Heather Lemonedes

  • January 19, 2021 Dear Residents, We Are Approaching a Year Since The
    January 19, 2021 Dear Residents, We are approaching a year since the COVID-19 pandemic began and, as I’m sure you all know, even though cases continue to surge, a vaccine is finally becoming available to us. We continue to follow Ohio Governor Mike DeWine’s guidance and, at this time, the 10-person limitation for gatherings remains in effect. Therefore, we continue to meet remotely and prohibit meetings or gatherings at our public buildings/facilities. Below is information about vaccines and some general Village updates. I encourage all of you to receive the vaccine as soon as you are eligible and it becomes available. It is our best opportunity to get back to a normal lifestyle. COVID-19 VACCINATIONS. The Governor and the Cuyahoga County Board of Health will determine when, where and to whom vaccines will be administered. Our local Mass Inoculation Point of Distribution (MIPOD) is ready for activation, but it is up to the Board of Health to decide if and when they will utilize it. For the most up-to-date information, visit the State’s website at https://coronavirus.ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/covid- 19/covid-19-vaccination-program where vaccination locations arelisted and searchable by Zip Code. Vaccination locations in Cuyahoga County are also available at the Board of Health website and will continue to be updated at https://www.ccbh.net/covid-19-phase-1b-provider-list/. For your convenience, enclosed with this letter is a current list of local providers. As of now, the vaccine is not available to the general public at large, but only to certain age groups or status.
