This museum is a gem for the city of Cleveland. We had to drive quite a bit to get here, but it was worth it. Well curated, interesting pieces, and a great breadth of art. We arrived just after the museum had opened and stayed, with a break for lunch, until closing, and it was not enough.

Cedar Lee Cinema

First opening its doors on Christmas Day 1925 as an 1,100 seat, single-screen theater, the Cedar Lee Theatre was transformed into a twin-screen theater in 1983 to compete with the increasing number of multiplexes and to meet the demand to play an ever growing number of specialty films. Two Hollywood-style screening rooms were added in 1991 - allowing guests to the theater to enjoy truly specialized films. Finally in 1994 two modern stadium-style theaters were added to bring the current screen count to six. For more than three decades the words "Cedar Lee Theatre" and "specialty film" have been synonymous in Cleveland. Ushering in an era when specialty film would transcend art-house appeal, and coupled with its unique concession stand the first to offer baked goods, sandwiches, specialty coffee drinks, and imported beer and wine the Cedar Lee Theatre continues to be the movie theater of choice for many Greater Clevelanders.

We went to see this movie based on the end of actress Gloria Grahame with my mother-in-law who used the closed captioning device provided by the theater. Nifty doohickey! She had no trouble following the film. The small, stadium are seats were unexpectedly comfortable, too. A Good place to see indie and foreign films.

It was interesting to learn about Jews settling in America besides NYC. Exhibits were informative and the section on WW2 was well done. We toured the exhibit on our own, but there is a docent led tour twice a week. Several items brought back pleasant memories.

Trapped!

Trapped! is Cleveland's first fully-interactive and immersive group gaming experience where players are locked in a room and must use logic and teamwork to find their way out . . . in under 60 minutes. Sound easy? Did we mention the riddles, mind tricks, gadgets, and mysteries that impede your progress? It will take problem-solving, creativity, and resourcefulness to escape. Can you escape?

We did two rooms on 1/1 (chainsaw and pirate tavern) and the rooms were just okay. The chainsaw room needed more puzzles that take less time. The room had 4 hard puzzles and it got too frustrating. They need to add short easy puzzles so it feels like you are doing something instead of being frustrated. In the pirate tavern room the puzzles were good but the name didn't fit. The only reason it was a tavern was because it had a bar. They need to change the name because it has nothing to do with a tavern.

Cain Park

Reviewed By kcjones - Cleveland Heights, Ohio

Cain Park comes alive in the summer with many types of activities and entertainment.
Every July there is an arts festival that runs Friday/Saturday/Sunday with quality artisans.

Parking can be a challenge on big event days, you either park on the many side streets in the neighborhoods around the park, or for certain events there is a shuttle bus that runs from Severance Center, a shopping plaza about 1 mile away where there is plenty of parking.

Even when there are no events Cain Park is a great place to walk. There are also tennis courts and a kids wading pool area.
