TRAVEL & PARKING
The Eastbound Shoreway (Rt. 2) will be closed from 6:30pm-10:30pm on September 9, due to a large cycling event. There is also other construction happening on the Shoreway and some exits may be closed. We recommend freeway commuters use I-90.
In general, please plan plenty of time for travel, as we are expecting higher than normal traffic in our neighborhood. As parking space is extremely limited, we encourage you to take advantage of the complimentary valet parking beginning at 6:30pm.
In addition, there will be a drop-off location for Uber and Lyft at the eastern end of our campus on Detroit Ave.

Andrew Watterson, 2017 Pan Award Honoree, on WKYC’s Square Talk
“CPT helps build compassion in communities through public conversations through the arts… [Pandemonium] actually doesn’t feel like a fundraiser, because there’s no fundraising that goes on at the event. Really it’s the best party of the year… it’s one of those events where there’s simply great dancing, excellent theatre, celebrity chefs from all around Cleveland and an open bar. So it’s truly a lot of fun.”
-Andrew Watterson, 2017 Pan Award Honoree; Senior Vice President and Head of Sustainability at KeyBank
