SUMMARY:Smokestacks and Saloons: Life Along Broadway: Cleveland Rotary
DESCRIPTION:CLEVELAND ROTARY CLUB \nWhen the mill whistles blew along Broadway\, workers poured out of the steel plants and into the neighborhood saloons that lined nearly every corner. From hardworking immigrants to Prohibition-era speakeasies and the rougher side of the old East Side\, it’s a lively look at the people who worked\, drank\, and built this corner of Cleveland.

SUMMARY:Cleveland Stories Dinner Party: Stone Mad with D.M. Pulley
DESCRIPTION:I’m excited to be hosting this Cleveland Stories Dinner Party at the Music Box Supper Club\, featuring one of my favorite authors\, D.M. Pulley. \nBefore she became an Amazon best-selling author\, Pulley worked as a professional engineer rehabbing historic buildings and assessing structural failures. Her survey of a vacant Cleveland building inspired her debut\, The Dead Key\, winner of the 2014 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award. Her Rust Belt mysteries and thrillers have since sold more than 800\,000 copies worldwide. \nJoin us as Pulley reveals the real Cleveland history\, abandoned landmarks\, and haunted legends behind her newest Gothic thriller\, Stone Mad. \nFranklin Castle (the Hannes Tiedemann House) and the long-lost Everett Mansion of Millionaire’s Row both helped shape the novel’s mysterious Stone Mad Castle. \nThe Cleveland Stories Dinner Party series brings Cleveland’s most fascinating stories to life\, from sports and rock ‘n’ roll to Millionaire’s Row. The series is presented in partnership with the Western Reserve Historical Society’s Cleveland History Center\, the only museum dedicated to preserving and documenting Cleveland’s history. \nGood food\, great stories\, and just in time for Halloween. I hope to see you there! \nThe event is free\, however\, reservations are required. Doors open at 5pm

SUMMARY:Forged in Steel: Where Polish Cleveland Worked
DESCRIPTION:Before Cleveland became an industrial giant\, it needed workers and Polish immigrants answered the call. Local author Tom Kaschalk explores where Polish Clevelanders spent most of their lives: on the factory floor\, in the mills\, and along the industrial corridors that powered the city’s rise. From the stone quarries of Berea to the blast furnaces of Newburgh\, from the looms of the Cleveland Worsted Mills to the machine.  https://www.canalwaypartners.com/events/2026/06/24/forged-in-steel-where-polish-cleveland-worked

SUMMARY:Grand Opening Author Event- Barnes & Noble Aurora
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THIS EVENT\n\nPlease come and enjoy an evening with us as we host local author Tom Kaschalk. Native Clevelander and founder of My 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. \nCleveland’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. \nBuilt 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.
