Breaking All the Rules: Join Cool Cleveland, CMA (Cleveland Museum of Art) and CIA (Cleveland Institute of Art) for a good T.I.M.E. (The Integrated Multimedia Environment).

Fast Forward Your Friday Night! Don’t miss the cultural party that headlines 11/11 as Cool Cleveland parties at the speed of light with the CMA's Fast Forward. Experience Cleveland’s awesome, artistic community collaborating on a major cultural vibe starting 5:30 - 7:30PM in the Institute’s Reinberger Gallery (11141 East Blvd.) with the radical, futuristic exhibition and docent tours of “Dreaming of a More Better Future” (as in: Did the Jetson’s get it right or wrong?). The exhibit highlights the work of 47 artists, designers, illustrators, architects, film and video creators and digital artists. Partake in beer, wine and delish delectables from Elan Catering and Bridges Restaurant in the Student Lounge and Ohio Bell Auditorium while grooving to the latest in electronic dance music DJ-ed by Severiano Martinez of the Shinkoyo Arts Collective. [Free parking behind CIA – off Bellflower or East Blvd. – gates will be open.]

Experience Futuristic Utopia! Then at 7:30, in the Aiken Auditorium, hear Eduardo Kac, Professor and Chair of the Art/Technology Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago as he explains how his art broke all the rules. His expansive list of credits includes his internationally recognized interactive net installations and bio art.

Afterwards (9PM 'til midnight) check out CMA’s Fast Forward party held at the CIA Factory, three blocks away (shuttles available), where you can immerse yourself in live music, food, libations and the burgeoning and hip student art scene with artwork, experiments, and ongoing performances around every corner.

Getcha Some. One ridiculously low price of $15 for all this: Beer, wine, great food, live music, the hippest art exhibition in town, the lowdown on how one artist made it happen, and the CMA’s Fast Forward party highlighting the latest craze in student art.
