SitemapThe timing’s just about perfect for The Truth Booth to come to Cleveland.
The nonprofit Cause Collective said in a news release that during the Republican National Convention, it it will host free public events during which Clevelanders can enter The Truth Booth — a giant, inflatable sculpture in the shape of a cartoon speech bubble with the word “Truth” printed on the side — and record their responses to the prompt, “The truth is…”
Backers say it “will allow Clevelanders to speak their own truth without fear of judgment or persecution.”
The events will take place at Art Yard behind Transformer Station, 1460 W. 29th St. in Cleveland, from Tuesday, July 19, to Thursday, July 21. The following week, the Truth Booth will travel to Philadelphia, home of the Democratic National Covention.
The Truth Booth, the brainchild of artists Ryan Alexiev, Jim Ricks, Will Sylvester, and Hank Willis Thomas, is scheduled to visit 22 additional U.S. cities through the end of the year.
It has been to Cleveland once before, on Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 2014 at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
