Event Navigation
“Create! Don’t Use!” is a celebration of the joys of sobriety through creativity. This year’s event will include musicians, artists, performers, and an open invitation to all throughout our community to express your own creativity in a safe, sober, and fun environment. There will be special musical guests and performers, including Chrissy Strong. Chrissy was recently voted Cleveland’s Best Female Vocalist and will be sharing a special “Music and Message” performance. Also performing will be nationally known comedian Kirk Bogos, acclaimed artist Matthew Dibble, American Steal Band, and more! Please join us for a fun-filled day including New Direction’s Sober Karaoke!; an open mic for singers, musicians, poets, and performers of all descriptions; meaningful conversations; great food and a lot of laughs—all for the important cause of saving young lives and families.
Because recovery benefits our entire community, all are welcome to join us for a fun outdoor barbecue courtesy of Heathland Hospitality Group. Enjoy food, games, music, “Create! Don’t Use!” entertainment, New Directions’ Super Raffle, 50/50 Raffle to benefit the Nancy Cutting Young Fund & the Jo Toomey HUGS Foundation Fund, prizes, and a few surprises!
