  Tremont West with our presenting partners of Ward 3 Councilman Kerry McCormack, Cleveland Public Theatre and LAND Studio are proud to present the 2020 season of Arts in August. It is different due to COVID-19, but it was important for us to be able to support our arts organizations during this pandemic.
 
  Please join us for the kick-off performance by Verb Ballets - Drive-in Style. Limited tickets for the Drive-in are available on Eventbrite. We ask that attendees follow social distancing guidelines and wear face masks if outside of your vehicle. Verb will perform at 7pm.
 
  The second performance will be a virtual presentation of Julius Caesar by the Cleveland Shakespeare Festival at 7pm on Saturday, August 15th and may be viewed at any time after that date. 
  The third performance will be by Inlet Dance and presented live and virtual 7 pm on Saturday, August 22nd. Please visit here for the link to view the performance.
 
  The fourth and final presentation by Cleveland Public Theatre will be a pop-up on Saturday, August 29th at 7pm. Follow Tremont West and Cleveland Public Theatre's social media threads to learn more.

TREMONT WEST OFFICE COVID-19 POLICY UPDATE 
 
Board Resolution passed 7.16.2020  -  Due to the continued prevalence of COVID-19 (coronavirus) and emerging recommendations from health care providers and government agencies around best prevention measures and social distancing, Tremont West Development Corporation is hosting its Board of Directors meetings and all Tremont West Committee meetings on the Zoom platform until further notice.  We urge all block clubs to consider doing the same and to work with Tremont West organizers to facilitate setting up Zoom meetings.  Staff from Tremont West will continue to help facilitate meetings by assisting in creating the agenda, sending out postcards and providing materials.  If block clubs host in-person meetings, we advise to host outdoors if at all possible while maintaining social distancing and face mask protocols.  
Additionally, we will continue to ask that developers present plans to the block club and the Economic Development Committee.  However, due to the City of Cleveland hosting their public review online, we do not believe we can successfully require in-person meetings.  Tremont West will work with block club chairs to ensure that members have access to materials and can have a presentation provided.  We remain committed to the review process we have worked to establish over many years.
