One of Cleveland, Ohio’s cutest hotels I’ve ye One of Cleveland, Ohio’s cutest hotels I’ve yet to stay at but hope to some day (even if I live 5 mins away) recently opened a new restaurant @eatatbetts! They have these cute little tents for those who don’t want to dine indoors yet. These heated spaces were perfect for a lovey brunch this morning, and the food was really good! Looking forward to coming back to try dinner some day. If you’re in town or a local this is great place for a night (or day) out!

Have you been exploring new-to-you places nearby w Have you been exploring new-to-you places nearby where you live? Lately I’ve just been opening up Google Maps and zooming into an area that looks interesting to find new places to explore. Then searching the hashtags on IG to see what it looks like and if it’s worth the trip. This park boasted a mountain and view of Downtown Cleveland skyline even though it’s about 30 miles away so we had to check it out!

Virtual Cleveland Experiences

Virtual Cleveland Experiences

Ah, remember going out and doing things? Wasn’t that fun? While many of us are doing our part by staying in, many local businesses and museums are offering us a wealth of resources and experiences to keep us educated and entertained while stuck at home. These Virtual Cleveland experiences are free and open to the public, even those who don’t live in Cleveland can enjoy these awesome experiences.

Take a look, there really is something for just about everyone! If you know of any other great resources please share in the comments below!

Virtual Cleveland Experience: Museums

Cleveland Museum of Art

Cleveland Museum of Art

I had just become a member of the Cleveland Museum of Art for the first time before the pandemic happened, and while I am saddened to miss out on weekends of exploring our incredible, world-class, free museum I find myself exploring their website when in need of a good dose of art in my life. The museums’ collection is online and free to view so you can admire old favorites and add new pieces you’ll want to admire in person when the museum reopens.

Visit the Cleveland Museum of Arts FREE online collection 

Cleveland Museum of Natural History

Did you know the Museum of Natural History also has several of Ohio’s native species that call the museum home? The museum has a page set up with all their museum at-home activities from Museum Mondays where you can virtually tour galleries with their museum educators – great for kids! There’s Wildlife Wednesdays where their animal experts choose a different native Ohio species to talk about. Then there is Scientist Saturdays for those who want to know more about the science and research the museum does.

Visit the Cleveland Museum of Natural History’s Museum at Home page. 

The Rock And Roll Hall of Fame
The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and Museum

Cleveland is the home of Rock and Roll and we’ve got the museum to prove it. Inside this uniquely designed museum are some of the most incredible pieces of rock history – including all kinds of music history from the music that inspired rock to the music inspired by rock. It’s truly a gem of a museum and they are offering their Rock Hall resources for you to explore while staying safe at home. There’s a little something for everyone here, dig in and rock on!

Visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fames Free Online Learning Resources

Great Lakes Science Center

Cleveland Metroparks and Zoo

If you want to enjoy nature in Cleveland, you don’t have to go very far. With 18 park reservations, 8 lakefront parks, and over 100 hiking trails, a zoo and rainforest one can enjoy nature just minutes away from the city. The Zoo and Rainforest are closed and while we can still visit our park systems, they are offering a virtual classroom on Facebook Live with park and zoo experiences. Their website also archives previous classroom experiences. If you love nature check it out!

Greater Cleveland Aquarium

The museum may be closed, but it’s business as usual for all the underwater creatures and wildlife in the aquarium! The Aquariums Youtube page has all kinds of fun video content from watching caretakers feed various marine life and even some fun crafts and informational videos. A great learning resource or just fun to watch for anyone who love life underwater.
