2 pm at St. Coleman Catholic Church, 2027 W 65th St., Cleveland 44102
Cleveland's melting pot of cultures has given us places of worship that rival those found in great European cities. Often called God's jewel box, the Church of St. Colman was intentionally built as a status symbol visually proclaiming the Irish could build with the best of them. It houses some the region's finest marble, alabaster and mosaic works made by Irish artisans in Dublin, Ireland.
Free to attend. Registration is requested.
