Dear Northeast Ohio artists, CPT is beginning to plan the sixth annual Station Hope event - a free multi-arts event that celebrates the triumphs of the Underground Railroad, Cleveland's social justice history and contemporary struggles for freedom and justice. The format of Station Hope includes multiple stages with 10-15 minute pieces performing simultaneously throughout the evening. This year, Station Hope will be a massive community celebration at and surrounding Ohio City's historic St. John's Church - Cleveland's only authenticated Underground Railroad site - on May 4th, 2019. CPT is looking for artists, performance groups, choirs, and organizations to create original work and perform at this powerful event. Performances can range from site-specific plays, actors in character wandering through the event, or your church choir singing. We are also seeking visual artists who are interested in creating community generated art and installations. Click here for the Station Hope 2019 Request for Proposals and Application.<https://www.cptonline.org/news/uncategorized/station-hope-2019-request-for-proposals/> There will be a Station Hope informational meeting this Sunday, December 2nd at 2pm at Cleveland Public Theatre. We will be discussing how Station Hope has worked in the past, how it will work this year and sharing information about the application process. If you would like to attend, please RSVP by the end of day on November 30th to CPT's Producer-in-Residence India Burton at iburton@cptonline.org<mailto:iburton@cptonline.org>.
