Cleveland Heights High Student Wins Big At Hathaway Brown's iMagine Film Festival
Antonio Harper’s film, Larry, won first place in the Comedy category and was also named “Best in Show” at the iMagine Film Festival
Cleveland Heights High School senior Antonio Harper was the big winner at Hathaway Brown School’s iMagine Film Festival on Friday, April 12. Harper’s film, Larry, won first place in the Comedy category and then was named “Best in Show” as the festival’s single most outstanding film. “I was thrilled, excited, and nervous all bundled into one,” Harper said in a statement.

Heights Arts Poet Laureate To Appear at Monday Council Meeting
Kathleen Cerveny will harness the power of Twitter for the 2013-2014 poet laureate program
Cleveland Heights’ next Poet Laureate will put a modern spin on an ancient art with her 2013 project Poetweet.
