Weekly Feature: Hidden Gems


Today's Hidden Gem: Larchmere Porchfest

If you are hankering for some good music, you'll want to head over to the Larchmere-Shaker Square neighborhood between 2:00p.m. and 9:00p.m. Saturday, June 20, 2009.


For one day only, dozens of area porches will be transformed into "center stage."


Some of the best local musicians will perform their music.


Whether you are into pop, rock, Indie rock, or some other genre, you're bound to find something you can groove to and enjoy.


The idea comes from a similar event which takes place in the Fallcreek neighborhood of Ithaca, New York.


This is a great opportunity to get out, meet new people, hear great LIVE music for FREE, and certainly learn about the Larchmere-Shaker Square neighborhood, if you are not familiar.


Larchmere consists of dozens and dozens of art galleries, restaurants, specialty shops, antique and book stores.


At least 20 bands will be performing at various locations between 2:00p.m. and 6:00p.m.--including residents' front porches!


The party shifts to Shaker Square at 6:00p.m. where bands will continue their jam session.


And then, if you are still raring to go, the 'after party' continues at Boulevard Blue on Larchmere beginning at 9:00p.m.


A one-day only event in the eclectic Larchmere neighborhood you sure won't want to miss.


If you venture out to this excitingly popular section of Cleveland, you too, will see why the Larchmere Porchfest is this week's Hidden Gem!
