I really appreciate the photos in this post too - of Able Projects in the Mockbee on the McMicken side of the building, and of the graffiti on Central Ave, and of the photos from inside The Rake. <br /><br />Jerome - bartender and owner of the Rake - is a great person and a true believer and contributor to grassroots community development. He's been a landlord and supporter of the neighborhood for over a decade, and he went out on a limb to invest in the neighborhood further by buying the bar. All of the art on the walls is also art created by his art collective TODT (http://todt.us/) The last photo in this post is of a piece that was featured in TODT's show at the Weston last September titled "Exurbia". Jerome is literally putting himself into the bar.<br /><br />Unlike OTR which has seen over $300 million dollars in investment from a variety of public and private sources, Brighton has had gradual and organic growth over the past decade or two, limited by the time and energy and financial resources of a handful of residents. This grassroots, sweat equity community development has given the neighborhood a character and cohesiveness unlike any other neighborhood in the city. I encourage everyone to stop by and check out the galleries and check out the Rake more often! The first Saturday evening of every month is the Brighton Gallery Walk.<br /><br />CityBeat also did a write up on the Rake this week - available online here: http://www.citybeat.com/cincinnati/article-25858-brightons_shiniest.html and in the latest print edition. Check it out if you'd like to learn even more.<br /><br />Thank you again for the coverage!Brittany Skeltonhttp://www.facebook.com/rakesendnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5174432287932211168.post-5638851493273988152012-07-27T04:17:23.080-04:002012-07-27T04:17:23.080-04:00SOOOO beautiful pictures I like them very much, an...SOOOO beautiful pictures I like them very much, and I like you post!bennysmithhttp://www.whiteazalea.com/64-mother-of-the-bride-suitsnoreply@blogger.com
