2023 Cleveland Restoration Society Community Luncheon

Come be part of the excitement at this year’s Cleveland Restoration Society Community Luncheon as we welcome Cuyahoga County Executive Chris Ronayne as our Keynote Speaker at Cory United Methodist Church in Cleveland’s Glenville neighborhood, Thursday, Nov. 2, 2023, at 11:30 a.m.

Gathering together business and nonprofit leaders, developers, preservation experts and long-time Cleveland Restoration Society supporters for an afternoon of networking, the Community Luncheon has become an annual tradition for over 50 years.

Prior to the Community Luncheon there will be an Historic Marker Unveiling Ceremony at Greater Abyssinia Baptist Church, one of the sites on the Cleveland Civil Rights Trail, at 10:30 a.m. The church, next door to Cory, will be open for tours a half hour before and after this ceremony. Greater Abyssinia stands as a landmark in Cleveland’s civil rights movement. Under the 62-year leadership of Rev. Dr. E. Theophilus Caviness, the church has been a hub for civil rights activism and community engagement. Rev. Caviness will speak at the marker ceremony and will be honored at the luncheon.
