An Interactive Art Event

Through a combination of murals and fundraising events at CLE Urban Winery, the winery and Graffiti HeArt have developed a strong relationship — with each other, local artists and residents of Cleveland Heights. They team up again tonight to host an interactive art event with local artist Rich Cihlar, co-founder of E11even 2 at 78th Street Studios and owner of the Pop Shop framing studio in Lakewood. It runs from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Described as a twist on traditional "paint & sip" classes, the event lets guests take part in making a large-scale, collaborative piece of graffiti art under Cihlar's guidance. At the end of the evening, each participant will leave with a 12-by-12-inch piece of the artwork. Tickets are $30 and include a glass of wine. Proceeds benefit the Graffiti HeArt scholarship fund. Tickets are available through Eventbrite. (Usmani)
