Crazy for Collinwood

From photo shoots to community crafting, the Ballot Box Project winners are gearing up to bring you some amazing opportunities. These projects are all about showing pride for Collinwood and the people that make our neighborhood the best in Cleveland. Activities are beginning in May and will continue through November. This month youth can get their hands dirty and try something new, while the adults can be boastful about their craft.
