Monday University: Cleveland's Neighborhood Taverns: A Pub Crawl Through History In-Person
REGISTRATION BEGINS September 21st. Cleveland’s neighborhood taverns are more than just places to grab a drink―they’re snapshots of the city’s history, rich with tales of community, celebration and even scandal.
Built by hardworking immigrants chasing the American Dream, these taverns were where workers cashed their paychecks, swapped stories, celebrated victories and sometimes witnessed late-night crimes. Family-run bars were often passed down through generations, becoming intertwined with the ever-changing face of the city. Although many did not survive the 1960s and ’70s, their memory lives on.
Native Cleveland History Tom Kaschalk honors the legendary watering holes that shaped Cleveland’s communities, hosted vibrant music scenes and served as the backdrop to both good times and life-changing events. Registration is Required to attend.
